The ShcD phosphotyrosine adaptor subverts canonical EGF receptor trafficking
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Shc family signalling adaptors connect activated transmembrane receptors to proximal effectors, and most also contain a sequence involved in clathrin-mediated receptor endocytosis. Notably, this AP2 adaptin-binding motif (AD) is absent from the ShcD (also known as Shc4) homolog, which also uniquely promotes ligand-independent phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). We now report that cultured cells expressing ShcD exhibit reduced EGF uptake, commensurate with a decrease in EGFR surface presentation. Under basal conditions, ShcD colocalises with the EGFR and facilitates its phosphorylation, ubiquitylation and accumulation in juxtanuclear vesicles identified as Rab11-positive endocytic recycling compartments. Accordingly, ShcD also functions as a constitutive binding partner for the E3 ubiquitin ligase Cbl. EGFR phosphorylation and focal accumulation likewise occur upon ShcD co-expression in U87 glioma cells. Loss of ShcD phosphotyrosine-binding function or insertion of the ShcA AD sequence each restore ligand acquisition through distinct mechanisms. The AD region also contains a nuclear export signal, indicating its multifunctionality. Overall, ShcD appears to possess several molecular permutations that actively govern the EGFR, which may have implications in development and disease.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
