Diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) plays an important
role in signal transduction through modulating the balance between two
signaling lipids, diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid. In yeast
two-hybrid screening, we unexpectedly found a self-association of the
C-terminal part of DGK
Phorbol Ester-regulated Oligomerization of Diacylglycerol Kinase
Linked to Its Phosphorylation and Translocation*
, and
containing a sterile
-motif (SAM) domain.
We then bacterially expressed the SAM domain fused with maltose-binding protein and confirmed the formation of dimeric and tetrameric structures. Moreover, gel filtration and co-immunoprecipitation analyses demonstrated that DGK
formed homo-oligomeric structures in
intact cells and that the SAM domain was critically involved in the
oligomerization. Interestingly, phorbol ester stimulation induced
dissociation of the oligomeric structures with concomitant phosphorylation of DGK
. Furthermore, we found that DGK
was
translocated from cytoplasmic vesicles to the plasma membrane upon
phorbol ester stimulation. In this case, DGK
mutants lacking the
ability of self-association were localized at the plasma membranes even in the absence of phorbol ester. A protein kinase C inhibitor, staurosporine, blocked all of the effects of phorbol ester,
i.e. oligomer dissociation, phosphorylation, and
translocation. We confirmed that tumor-promoting phorbol esters did not
directly bind to DGK
. The present studies demonstrated that the
formation and dissociation of oligomers serve as the regulatory
mechanisms of DGK
and that DGK
is a novel downstream effector of
phorbol ester/protein kinase C signaling pathway.
