Research Abstract	低分子量G蛋白質のうち、RasはMAPキナーゼ系を介して種々の遺伝子の発現を促進することにより細胞の増殖や分化を制御していることが明らかとなっている。一方、私共を含めたいくつかのグループによって、Rhoはアクチン細胞骨格系を介して細胞の形態や運動を制御していることが明らかにされている。しかし、RasとRhoの活性化機構と作用機構については十分に明らかにされていない。本年度、Rasについては、私共が開発した無細胞系によってRasによりMAPキナーゼを活性化するアッセイ系を用いて、Rasの標的蛋白質をウシ大脳可溶性画分よりほぼ均一にまで精製し、それがB-Rafプロテインキナーゼと14-3-3蛋白質の複合体であることを明らかにした。さらに、14-3-3蛋白質はB-Rafに直接作用し、Ras存在下でB-Rafを相乗的に活性化することを明らかにした。また、私共が見出しているSmg GDSが、Rasを活性型であるGTP結合型に変換する活性だけではなく、GTP結合型のRasと安定な三者複合体を形成してRasを細胞膜から解離する活性を有することを明らかにした。一方、Rhoに関しては、Dbl発がん遺伝子産物がRhoのGDP解離促進蛋白質としての活性を有することを明らかにし、Dblが細胞内でRhoを活性化している可能性を示した。また、RhoがHGFやTPAの下流で細胞膜ラッフリングと細胞運動を制御していることを明らかにした。さらに、Rhoを静止時の細胞では細胞質に存在するが、種々の細胞刺激により、細胞質から細胞膜ラッフリング領域、細胞間接着部位、細胞質分裂時の収縮環等の細胞膜部位へトランスロケーションすることを明らかにした。これらの部位には、アクチン細胞骨格系と細胞膜との結合を制御するERM-CD44系が存在しており、RhoがERM-CD44系を介してアクチン細胞骨格系の再編成に関与している可能性を示した。以上、RasとRhoの活性化機構と作用機構の詳細がかなり明らかになり、本年度の研究は順調に進んだと考えられる。
