title: Functional independence and interdependence of the Src homology domains of phospholipase C-gamma1 in B-cell receptor signal transduction.
abstract: B-cell receptor (BCR)-induced activation of phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLCgamma1) and PLCgamma2 is crucial for B-cell function. While several signaling molecules have been implicated in PLCgamma activation, the mechanism coupling PLCgamma to the BCR remains undefined. The role of PLCgamma1 SH2 and SH3 domains at different steps of BCR-induced PLCgamma1 activation was examined by reconstitution in a PLCgamma-negative B-cell line. PLCgamma1 membrane translocation required a functional SH2 N-terminal [SH2(N)] domain, was decreased by mutation of the SH3 domain, but was unaffected by mutation of the SH2(C) domain. Tyrosine phosphorylation did not require the SH2(C) or SH3 domains but depended exclusively on a functional SH2(N) domain, which mediated the association of PLCgamma1 with the adapter protein, BLNK. Forcing PLCgamma1 to the membrane via a myristoylation signal did not bypass the SH2(N) domain requirement for phosphorylation, indicating that the phosphorylation mediated by this domain is not due to membrane anchoring alone. Mutation of the SH2(N) or the SH2(C) domain abrogated BCR-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis and signaling events, while mutation of the SH3 domain partially decreased signaling. PLCgamma1 SH domains, therefore, have interrelated but distinct roles in BCR-induced PLCgamma1 activation.
