From the CEACAM1 is a cell-cell adhesion molecule that
mediates homophilic cell adhesion. In addition, CEACAM1 was also shown
to suppress the growth of prostate, breast, and colon tumors.
Structural and functional analyses showed that the adhesion activity of
CEACAM1 is mediated by its extracellular domain while its cytoplasmic domain is necessary and sufficient for growth-inhibitory activity. The
signal pathways leading to CEACAM1-mediated growth suppression are not
known. We studied the importance of phosphorylation of serine 503 in
this growth-inhibitory signaling pathway. Full-length CEACAM1 was found
to be phosphorylated in vivo in both tyrosine and serine
residues. Mutation of tyrosine 488 to phenylalanine did not abolish the
tumor-suppressive activity of CEACAM1, suggesting that phosphorylation
at tyrosine 488 is not critical for CEACAM1's tumor-suppressive
activity. Although expression of CEACAM1's cytoplasmic domain
inhibited the growth of DU145 prostate cancer cells in vivo, mutation of serine 503 to alanine abolished the
growth-inhibitory activity. In addition, the change of serine 503 to
aspartic acid produced tumor-suppressive activity similar to that of
the wild-type CEACAM1. These results suggested that phosphorylation at
serine 503 is essential for CEACAM1's growth-inhibitory function
in vivo.
