title: Caveolin interaction with protein kinase C. Isoenzyme-dependent regulation of kinase activity by the caveolin scaffolding domain peptide.
abstract: Caveolar localization of protein kinase C and the regulation of caveolar function by protein kinase C are well known. This study was undertaken to examine whether caveolin subtypes interact with various protein kinase C isoenzymes using the caveolin scaffolding domain peptide. When protein kinase C-alpha, -epsilon, and -zeta were overexpressed in COS cells followed by subcellular fractionation using the sucrose gradient method, all the isoenzymes (alpha, epsilon, and zeta) were detected in the same fraction as caveolin. The scaffolding domain peptide of caveolin-1 and -3, but not -2, inhibited the kinase activity and autophosphorylation of protein kinase C-alpha and -zeta, but not of protein kinase C-epsilon, overexpressed in insect cells. Truncation mutation studies of the caveolin-1 and -3 peptides demonstrated that a minimum of 16 or 14 amino acid residues of the peptide were required for the inhibition or direct binding of protein kinase C. Thus, the caveolin peptide physically interacted with protein kinase C and regulated its function. Further, this regulation occurred in a protein kinase C isoenzyme-dependent manner. Our results may provide a new mechanism regarding the regulation of protein kinase C isoenzyme activity and the molecular interaction of protein kinase C with its putative binding proteins.
