Research Abstract |
Insulin receptor substrates (IRSs) that are phosphorylated by insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I receptor tyrosine kinases. Phosphotyrosyl IRSs are recognized by signaling molecules possessing SH2 domains, which mediate various IGF bioactivities. However, we have shown that IRSs are also associated with other proteins by a phosphotyrosine-independent mechanism. These protein complexes contain a number of ubiquitin ligases (E3) and deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs). Our results indicate that ubiquitination of IRSs which was dynamically regulated by these E3 and DUBs in response to other extracellular factor, plays important roles not only in regulation of their protein levels but also modulation of their tyrosine phosphorylation, leading to control of IGF bioactivities, such as a growth-promoting activity.
