Snapshots of Protein Dynamics and Post-translational Modifications In One Experiment—β-Catenin and Its Functions

Abstract: ␤-catenin plays multiple roles in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway and in cell-cell adhesion complexes. In addition, ␤-catenin is a proto-oncogene and activating ␤-catenin mutations are relevant in the genesis of colorectal, hepatocellular and other common cancers. Different functions of ␤-catenin as transcriptional co-activator or cell adhesion molecule are orchestrated by changes in concentration and phosphorylation as well as its ability to complex with proteins such as cadherins or transcription factors… Show more

“…The development of new research tools has always proven to advance the knowledge of ␤-catenin. This includes the generation and application of specific antibodies recognizing different post-translationally modified versions of ␤-catenin (47, 66 -68), reliable immunoassays to study protein dynamics upon compound treatment (37) or the development of fluorescently labeled constructs to trace the dynamics of ␤-catenin in different cellular models (26,27).…”

“…3), which provided a conceptually satisfactory answer to a long-standing question, indicating that similar molecular mechanisms underlie GSK3 inhibition by both Wnt and insulin signalling. Notably, this model can readily explain the rapid Wnt-induced block of GSK3-mediated phosphorylation of b-catenin, and of Axin -both of which are detectable within 5-15 minutes after Wnt stimulation (Luckert et al, 2011;Willert et al, 1999). Altogether, this biochemical model is highly persuasive, although some questions remain unanswered.…”

“…[33][34][35] It is also very difficult to replicate post-translational modifications in the system which results in many transient protein-protein interactions being missed. Several adaptations of the protein array system, such as suspension bead arrays, have the potential to circumnavigate this problem 36 and studies investigating post-translational modifications of particular residues such as lysine have been successful and are being used to study ubiqutin (Ub) ligases, SUMOylation E3 ligases and acetyltransferases. 37 Advances in peptide synthesis on nitrocellulose support have also helped overcome some of these challenges and is discussed later in the review.…”
