Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling-1 Inhibits VAV Function through Protein Degradation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS1) is an inducible Src homology 2 (SH2)-containing protein that negatively regulates cytokine and growth factor signaling required during thymic development. Recent evidence indicates that SOCS1 interacts with elongins B and C, which are components of a ubiquitin ligase complex, VCB (VHL/elonginC/B), based on the VHL (von Hippel Lindau) tumor suppressor protein. SOCS1 has previously been shown to operate as an inhibitor of Janus kinases. Here we show that SOCS1 has the distinct function of targeting the hematopoietic specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor, VAV, for ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation. VAV and SOCS1 form a protein complex through interactions between the VAV NH(2)-terminal regulatory region and the SH2 domain of SOCS1 in a phosphotyrosine-independent manner. SOCS1 decreases the steady state levels of cotransfected VAV and onco-VAV and reduces the focus forming activity of onco-VAV. SOCS1 stimulates the polyubiquitination of VAV proteins in vivo, which was stabilized by proteasomal inhibitors. These results suggest that SOCS1 programs VAV degradation by acting as a substrate-specific recognition component of a VCB-like ubiquitin ligase complex.

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.
