Erk1/2-dependent Phosphorylation of Gα-interacting Protein Stimulates Its GTPase Accelerating Activity and Autophagy in Human Colon Cancer Cells
1 Dec 2000
Abstract excerpt
Galpha-interacting protein (GAIP) is a regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) that accelerates the rate of GTP hydrolysis by the alpha-subunit of the trimeric G(i3) protein. Both proteins are part of a signaling pathway that controls lysosomal-autophagic catabolism in human colon cancer HT-29 cells. Here we show that GAIP is phosphorylated by an extracellular signal-regulated (Erk1/2) MAP kinase-dependent pathway...
