PMID- 10642536 OWN - NLM STAT- MEDLINE DCOM- 20000323 LR - 20181113 IS - 0264-6021 (Print) IS - 0264-6021 (Linking) VI - 345 Pt 3 DP - 2000 Feb 1 TI - 14-3-3zeta interacts with the alpha-chain of human interleukin 9 receptor. PG - 741-7 AB - Interleukin 9 (IL-9) exerts its pleiotropic effects through the IL-9 receptor (IL-9R) complex, which consists of the IL-9R alpha-chain, which determines the cytokine specificity, and the IL-2 receptor gamma-chain. In the present study we used a modified yeast two-hybrid system to isolate cDNA species encoding proteins that interacted with the intracellular domain of the human IL-9R alpha-chain (hIL-9Ralpha). We have identified 14-3-3zeta as an hIL-9Ralpha-interacting protein. We also mapped residues 518-522 (Arg-Ser(519)-Trp-Thr(521)-Phe) in hIL-9Ralpha and helix I of 14-3-3zeta as being important for interaction. Moreover, peptide competition experi-ments suggested that interaction between hIL-9Ralpha and 14-3-3zeta requires the phosphorylation of Ser(519) or Thr(521). This is the first demonstration that 14-3-3 can interact with a non-tyrosine kinase receptor. The interaction between 14-3-3 and IL-9Ralpha but not IL-4Ralpha also suggests a potential role for 14-3-3 in determining cytokine specificity.
