title: Suppressor of T-cell receptor signalling 1 and 2 differentially regulate endocytosis and signalling of receptor tyrosine kinases.
abstract: Suppressor of T-cell receptor signalling 1 and 2 (Sts-1 and 2) negatively regulate the endocytosis of receptor tyrosine kinases. The UBA domain of Sts-2 and SH3-dependent Cbl-binding are required for this function. Sts-1 and -2 also possess a PGM domain, which was recently reported to exhibit tyrosine phosphatase activity. Here, we demonstrate that the PGM of Sts-1, but not of Sts-2, dephosphorylates the EGFR at multiple tyrosines thereby terminating its signalling and endocytosis. In contrast to Sts-2 the UBA of Sts-1 did not contribute significantly to receptor stabilization. Thus, although Sts-1 and Sts-2 are structurally highly homologous and both inhibit ligand-induced EGFR degradation, their mechanisms of action differ significantly. As a consequence, Sts-1-containing receptor complexes are inactive, whereas Sts-2-containing complexes are signalling competent.
