Abstract
Although ezrin-radixin-moesin-binding phosphoprotein 50 (EBP50) is a PDZ domain-containing protein known to bind to various channels, receptors, cytoskeletal elements, and cytoplasmic proteins, there is still very little evidence for a role of EBP50 in the regulation of receptor signal transduction. In this report, we show that EBP50 inhibits the phospholipase C (PLC)-β-mediated inositol phosphate production of a Gαq-coupled receptor as well as PLC-β activation by the constitutively active Gαq-R183C mutant. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that EBP50 interacts with Gαq and to a greater extent with Gαq-R183C. Agonist stimulation of the thromboxane A2 receptor (TP receptor) resulted in an increased interaction between EBP50 and Gαq, suggesting that EBP50 preferentially interacts with activated Gαq. We also demonstrate that EBP50 inhibits Gαq signaling by preventing the interaction between Gαq and the TP receptor and between activated Gαq and PLC-β1. Investigation of the EBP50 regions involved in Gαq binding indicated that its two PDZ domains are responsible for this interaction. This study constitutes the first demonstration of an interaction between a G protein α subunit and another protein through a PDZ domain, with broad implications in the regulation of diverse physiological systems.

(also known as NHERF1), a 55-kDa phosphoprotein, was first identified as a cofactor essential for protein kinase A-mediated inhibition of Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 3 (NHE3) (1Weinman E.J. Steplock D. Wang Y. Shenolikar S. J. Clin. Invest. 1995; 95: 2143-2149Google Scholar). EBP50 contains two PDZ domains (PDZ1 and PDZ2) implicated in multiple protein-protein interactions, and an ERM domain, which binds to the actin-associated ERM proteins (ezrin, radixin, moesin, and merlin) (2Murthy A. Gonzalez-Agosti C. Cordero E. Pinney D. Candia C. Solomon F. Gusella J. Ramesh V. J. Biol. Chem. 1998; 273: 1273-1276Google Scholar,3Reczek D. Berryman M. Bretscher A. J. Cell Biol. 1997; 139: 169-179Google Scholar). EBP50 was also found to interact with a small number of transmembrane proteins such as the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) (4Moyer B.D. Duhaime M. Shaw C. Denton J. Reynolds D. Karlson K.H. Pfeiffer J. Wang S. Mickle J.E. Milewski M. Cutting G.R. Guggino W.B., Li., M. Stanton B.A. J. Biol.

A. 1998; 95: 8496-8501Google Scholar), the B1 subunit of the H+-ATPase (7Breton S. Wiederhold T. Marshansky V. Nsumu N.N. Ramesh V. Brown D. J. Biol. Chem. 2000; 275: 18219-18224Google Scholar), and the type IIa sodium phosphate cotransporter (8Gisler S.M. Stagljar I. Traebert M. Bacic D. Biber J. Murer H. J. Biol. Chem. 2001; 276: 9206-9213Google Scholar). EBP50 also associates with the phospholipases C (PLC)-β1/β2, and with the TRP4 and TRP5 calcium channels to form a PLC-β1/2-TRP4/5-EBP50 protein complex (9Tang Y. Tang J. Chen Z. Trost C. Flockerzi V., Li, M. Ramesh V. Zhu M.X. J. Biol. Chem. 2000; 275: 37559-37564Google Scholar). The physiological role of this interaction on the regulation of PLC-β1/2 remains undefined. The EBP50 protein can also bind through its PDZ domains to various intracellular proteins, including GRK6A (10Hall R.A. Spurney R.F. Premont R.T. Rahman N. Blitzer J.T. Pitcher J.A. Lefkowitz R.J. J. Biol. Chem. 1999; 274: 24328-24334Google Scholar), EPI64 (11Reczek D. Bretscher A. J. Cell Biol. 2001; 153: 191-206Google Scholar), and Yes-associated protein 65 (12). A close relative of EBP50 has been identified and is known as E3KARP (13Yun C.H., Oh, S. Zizak M. Steplock D. Tsao S. Tse C.M. Weinman E.J. Donowitz M. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 1997; 94: 3010-3015Google Scholar), SIP-1 (14Poulat F. Barbara P.S. Desclozeaux M. Soullierk S. Moniotk B. Bonneaudk N. Boizetk B. Berta P. J. Biol. Chem. 1997; 272: 7167-7172Google Scholar), and NHERF2 (15Hwang J.I. Heo K. Shin K.J. Kim E. Yun C. Ryu S.H. Shin H.S. Suh P.G. J. Biol. Chem. 2000; 275: 16632-16637Google Scholar). EBP50 and NHERF2 share 52% amino acid identity and a conserved domain architecture (13Yun C.H., Oh, S. Zizak M. Steplock D. Tsao S. Tse C.M. Weinman E.J. Donowitz M. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 1997; 94: 3010-3015Google Scholar). It has been shown recently that the PDZ domains of EBP50 can homo-oligomerize and also hetero-oligomerize with the PDZ domains of NHERF2 (16Lau A.G. Hall R.A. Biochemistry. 2001; 40: 8572-8580Google Scholar). Despite the growing evidence suggesting the role of EBP50 as a scaffolding protein involved in the formation of signaling complexes, there is still little evidence for a role of EBP50 in the regulation of transmembrane receptor signaling pathways. Our laboratory has been interested in the regulation of the thromboxane A2 (TXA2) receptors (TP receptors). TXA2 has a variety of pharmacological effects that modulate the physiological responses of several cells and tissues (17Kinsella B.T. Biochem. Soc. Trans. 2001; 29: 641-654Google Scholar). Binding of TXA2 to its receptor induces platelet aggregation, constriction of vascular and bronchiolar smooth muscle cells, as well as mitogenesis and hypertrophy of vascular smooth muscle cells (18Narumiya S. Sugimoto Y. Ushikubi F. Physiol. Rev. 1999; 79: 1193-1226Google Scholar). The TP receptor is part of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. Two TP receptor isoforms were identified that are generated by the alternative splicing of a single gene, TPα (343 amino acids) and TPβ (407 amino acids), which share the first 328 amino acids (19Hirata M. Hayashi Y. Ushikubi F. Yokota Y. Kageyama R. Nakanishi S. Narumiya S. Nature. 1991; 349: 617-620Google Scholar, 20Raychowdhury M.K. Yukawa M. Collins L.J. McGrail S.H. Kent K.C. Ware J.A. J. Biol. Chem. 1994; 269: 19256-19261Google Scholar). Different experiments demonstrated that agonist-induced production of the second messenger inositol phosphates by the TP receptors results from the activation of the Gq/11 family of the Gα subunits (17Kinsella B.T. Biochem. Soc. Trans. 2001; 29: 641-654Google Scholar). Gαq-mediated production of inositol phosphates involves the stimulation of PLC-β isoforms in the following order of potency: PLC-β1 ≥ PLC-β3 > PLC-β2 (21Smrcka A.V. Sternweis P.C. J. Biol. Chem. 1993; 268: 9667-9674Google Scholar). Furthermore, PLC-β isoenzymes accelerate the intrinsic GTP hydrolysis by Gα subunits acting as a GTPase-activating protein (GAP) (22Chidiac P. Ross E.M. J. Biol. Chem. 1999; 274: 19639-19643Google Scholar). More recently, it was shown that PLC-βs form dimers in vivo and suggested that dimerization could mediate their interaction with GTP-bound Gαq (23Singer A.U. Waldo G.L. Harden T.K. Sondek J. Nat. Struct. Biol. 2002; 9: 32-36Google Scholar). Although the signaling pathways of the TP receptors are being described in increasing detail, their regulation remains to be characterized. Knowing that the TP receptor signaling cascade involves the activation of Gαq and the stimulation of the downstream effector PLC-β, we investigated the effect of EBP50 on the signaling of the agonist-stimulated TP receptor through the Gαq pathway. Surprisingly, our experiments revealed that EBP50 regulates the Gαq signaling pathway by preferentially binding through its PDZ domains to the activated Gαq and by preventing its interaction with PLC-β. Furthermore, we show that EBP50 also interferes in the TP receptor-Gαq coupling. This novel interaction between PDZ domains and Gαq has broad implications in intracellular signaling regulation. Growing evidence demonstrates the role of EBP50 in a wide variety of physiological events. The regulation of these events could possibly be modulated by the Gαq-EBP50 interaction.
