Procaspase-2 phosphorylation at several residues prevents its activation and blocks apoptosis. This process involves procaspase-2 phosphorylation at S164 and its binding to the scaffolding protein 14-3-3. However, bioinformatics analysis has suggested that a second phosphoserine-containing motif may also be required for 14-3-3 binding. In this study, we show that human procaspase-2 interaction with 14-3-3 is governed by phosphorylation at both S139 and S164. Using biochemical and biophysical approaches, we show that doubly phosphorylated procaspase-2 and 14-3-3 form an equimolar complex with a dissociation constant in the nanomolar range. Furthermore, our data indicate that other regions of procaspase-2, in addition to phosphorylation motifs, may be involved in the interaction with 14-3-3.
半胱天冬酶原-2在多个位点的磷酸化可阻止其激活并阻断细胞凋亡。这一过程涉及半胱天冬酶原-2在S164位点的磷酸化及其与支架蛋白14-3-3的结合。然而,生物信息学分析表明,14-3-3结合可能还需要第二个含磷酸丝氨酸的基序。在本研究中,我们发现人半胱天冬酶原-2与14-3-3的相互作用受S139和S164位点磷酸化的调控。通过生化和生物物理方法,我们发现双磷酸化的半胱天冬酶原-2和14-3-3形成了一个解离常数在纳摩尔范围内的等摩尔复合物。此外,我们的数据表明,除了磷酸化基序外,半胱天冬酶原-2的其他区域可能也参与了与14-3-3的相互作用。
