From the Nef is a lentiviral protein involved in
pathogenesis of AIDS, but its molecular mechanisms of action remain
incompletely understood. Here we report a novel effect of Nef on
lymphocyte signaling, which is mediated via a T cell receptor
(TCR)-independent contribution of Nef to induction of nuclear factor of
activated T cells (NFAT), a transcription factor that plays a central
role in coordinating T cell activation. Expression of Nef did not
significantly alter the basal level of NFAT activity in Jurkat cells
nor the increased activity following T cell receptor stimulation by
anti-CD3 or anti-CD3 + anti-CD28. We also mimicked NFAT induction by
TCR triggering by simultaneous activation of the Ras and calcium
signaling pathways with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and ionomycin,
respectively. Strikingly, whereas activation of either of these
pathways individually did not induce NFAT activity in control cells, in
Nef-expressing cells phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate treatment alone
resulted in a 100-fold increase in NFAT-directed gene expression.
Experiments with different dominant negative mutant signaling proteins,
inhibitory chemicals, and Lck-deficient Jurkat cells revealed that this
effect was mediated via activation of calcineurin by Nef-induced
changes in calcium metabolism, but was independent of TCR-associated
signaling events. This ability of Nef to substitute for triggering of
the calcium pathway in induction of NFAT could promote activation of
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected T cells in response to
stimuli mediated via TCR or other cell surface receptors under conditions when activation of Ras rather than calcium signaling would
otherwise predominate.
