Differential Regulation of Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Kinase 4 (MKK4) and 7 (MKK7) by Signaling from G Protein beta gamma Subunit in Human Embryonal Kidney 293 Cells

Heterotrimeric G protein beta gamma subunit (Gbeta gamma ) mediates signals to two types of stress-activated protein kinases, c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, in mammalian cells. To investigate the signaling mechanism whereby Gbeta gamma regulates the activity of JNK, we transfected kinase-deficient mutants of two JNK kinases, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4 (MKK4) and 7 (MKK7), into human embryonal kidney 293 cells. Gbeta gamma -induced JNK activation was blocked by kinase-deficient MKK4 and to a lesser extent by kinase-deficient MKK7. Moreover, Gbeta gamma increased MKK4 activity by 6-fold and MKK7 activity by 2-fold. MKK4 activation by Gbeta gamma was blocked by dominant-negative Rho and Cdc42, whereas MKK7 activation was blocked by dominant-negative Rac. In addition, Gbeta gamma -mediated MKK4 activation, but not MKK7 activation, was inhibited completely by specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors PP2 and PP1. These results indicate that Gbeta gamma induces JNK activation mainly through MKK4 activation dependent on Rho, Cdc42, and tyrosine kinase, and to a lesser extent through MKK7 activation dependent on Rac.
