Tyrosine Phosphorylation of the β4 Integrin Cytoplasmic Domain Mediates Shc Signaling to Extracellular Signal-regulated Kinase and Antagonizes Formation of Hemidesmosomes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ligation of the alpha(6)beta(4) integrin induces tyrosine phosphorylation of the beta(4) cytoplasmic domain, followed by recruitment of the adaptor protein Shc and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades. We have used Far Western analysis and phosphopeptide competition assays to map the sites in the cytoplasmic domain of beta(4) that are required for interaction with Shc. Our results indicate that, upon phosphorylation, Tyr(1440), or secondarily Tyr(1422), interacts with the SH2 domain of Shc, whereas Tyr(1526), or secondarily Tyr(1642), interacts with its phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain. An inactivating mutation in the PTB domain of Shc, but not one in its SH2 domain, suppresses the activation of Shc by alpha(6)beta(4). In addition, mutation of beta(4) Tyr(1526), which binds to the PTB domain of Shc, but not of Tyr(1422) and Tyr(1440), which interact with its SH2 domain, abolishes the activation of ERK by alpha(6)beta(4). Phenylalanine substitution of the beta(4) tyrosines able to interact with the SH2 or PTB domain of Shc does not affect incorporation of alpha(6)beta(4) in the hemidesmosomes of 804G cells. Exposure to the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor orthovanadate increases tyrosine phosphorylation of beta4 and disrupts the hemidesmosomes of 804G cells expressing recombinant wild type beta(4). This treatment, however, exerts a decreasing degree of inhibition on the hemidesmosomes of cells expressing versions of beta(4) containing phenylalanine substitutions at Tyr(1422) and Tyr(1440), at Tyr(1526) and Tyr(1642), or at all four tyrosine phosphorylation sites. These results suggest that beta(4) Tyr(1526) interacts in a phosphorylation-dependent manner with the PTB domain of Shc. This event is required for subsequent tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and signaling to ERK but not formation of hemidesmosomes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
