From the T cell development in the thymus and activation
of mature T cells in the periphery depend on signals stimulated by
engagement of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR). Among the second
messenger cascades initiated by TCR ligation include the
phosphatidylinositol pathway where the membrane phospholipid,
phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, is hydrolyzed to inositol
1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol (DAG). Inositol
1,4,5-trisphosphate signals a rise in intracellular free calcium,
leading to translocation of nuclear factor of activated T cells into
the nucleus. DAG activates RasGRP and protein kinase C

. Because
both RasGRP and protein kinase C
are essential for thymocyte and T
cell function, it is critical to understand how DAG is regulated. In
this report, we demonstrate expression of DAG kinase
(DGK
, the
enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of DAG to phosphatidic acid) in
multiple lymphoid organs, with highest expression observed within the T cell compartment. Overexpression studies in Jurkat T cells indicate that DGK
interferes with TCR-induced Ras and ERK activation, AP-1
induction, and expression of the activation marker CD69. In contrast,
TCR-stimulated calcium influx is not altered. Mutational analysis
indicates that the kinase and DAG binding domains, but not the ankyrin
repeats of DGK
, are required for its inhibitory effects.
Collectively these studies demonstrate a potential role of DGK
to
function as a selective negative regulator of DAG signaling on T cell
activation and provide the first structure/function analysis of this
enzyme in T cells.
