ABSTRACT |
Lck is a member of the Src family of
protein-tyrosine kinases and is essential for T cell development and
function. Lck is localized to the inner surface of the plasma membrane
and partitions into lipid rafts via dual acylation on its N terminus.
We have tested the role of Lck binding domains in regulating Lck
localization to lipid rafts. A form of Lck containing a point mutation
inactivating the SH3 domain (W97ALck) was preferentially
localized to lipid rafts compared with wild type or SH2 domain-inactive
(R154K) Lck when expressed in Lck-deficient J.CaM1 cells. W97ALck
incorporated more of the radioiodinated version of palmitic acid,
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid.
Overexpression of c-Cbl, a ligand of the Lck SH3 domain, depleted Lck
from lipid rafts in Jurkat cells. Additionally, Lck localization to
lipid rafts was enhanced in c-Cbl-deficient T cells. The association of
Lck with c-Cbl in vivo required a functional SH3 domain.
These results suggest a model whereby the SH3 domain negatively
regulates basal localization of Lck to lipid rafts via association with
c-Cbl.

INTRODUCTION |
Members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases such as Lck play an
important role in transducing signals from the extracellular environment into the cell interior in many different cell types (1).
Lck is expressed predominantly in T lymphocytes and is essential for T
cell antigen receptor (TCR)1
signaling and T cell development (2, 3). Lck is localized to the plasma
membrane because of its irreversible myristoylation on Gly-2 and
reversible palmitoylation on Cys-3 and -5 (4-6). In addition,
palmitoylation is necessary for targeting Lck to lipid rafts (5, 7, 8).
Lipid rafts are subdomains within cellular membranes that are enriched
in glycosphingolipids, cholesterol, and lipid-modified proteins (9).
The unique lipid raft environment favors the partitioning of proteins
carrying saturated acyl chains, such as myristate and palmitate, and
glycosylphosphatidylinositol linkages (10, 11). Indeed, the first 10 amino acids of Lck containing the dual acylation site is sufficient for
targeting cytosolic proteins to lipid rafts, indicating that this short motif is a lipid raft-targeting signal (12-14). Certain palmitoylated proteins are found constitutively enriched within lipid rafts in T
cells such as Lck and the transmembrane adaptor protein LAT, although a
significant portion of Lck remains excluded from rafts (5, 15). Other
proteins are reported to be constitutively excluded from lipid rafts in
T cells including c-Cbl and CD45 (4, 15). Upon TCR cross-linking,
non-lipid-modified proteins such as the chain of the TCR and the
cytoplasmic proteins ZAP-70, phospholipase C- , Vav, Grb2,
phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and SLP-76 are recruited to lipid rafts
(15, 16) suggesting that protein-protein interactions are directing the
localization of these proteins to rafts. Importantly, the localization
of Lck and LAT to rafts is needed for effective TCR signaling (5, 15,
17). Moreover, disruption of lipid rafts by pharmacological agents
abrogates TCR signaling (18). These observations suggest that lipid
rafts play a regulatory role in TCR activation by selectively concentrating certain molecules while excluding others, thereby forming
a platform for coordinating signal transduction events (4, 19-21).
Similar to other members of the Src family, Lck has an N-terminal
membrane targeting motif (SH4 domain), single SH3 and SH2 domains
followed by a C-terminal tyrosine kinase or SH1 domain. SH3 domains
bind to proline-rich sequences, whereas SH2 domains bind to
phosphotyrosine-containing sequences. The Lck SH3 domain has been
reported to bind to a number of cellular proteins including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, Ras-GAP, HS1, SLP-76, CD2, Cdc2, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and Sam-68 (22-29). In addition, Lck
binds c-Cbl in vivo (30), and the Lck SH3 domain binds c-Cbl in vitro (30-34). The Lck SH3 domain is required in TCR
downstream signaling events including activation of the
mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway (32) and in T cell activation
by the costimulatory receptors CD28 and CD48 (31, 35, 36). However, the
molecular mechanisms by which the Lck SH3 domain functions in T cell
signaling are not yet clear.
One potential binding protein for the Lck SH3 domain is c-Cbl. The
proto-oncogene product c-Cbl is a multifunctional protein that binds to
numerous signaling molecules and participates in a number of tyrosine
kinase signaling pathways (37-39). c-Cbl is a 120-kDa protein that
consists of several domains including a proline-rich C-terminal region
that binds constitutively to the SH3 domains of several members of Src
family kinases. Biochemical and genetic analyses have indicated that
c-Cbl negatively regulates tyrosine kinases, including the Src family
kinases, in part by promoting their ubiquitination and subsequent
degradation. c-Cbl becomes highly phosphorylated upon TCR stimulation.
Additionally, TCR signaling is negatively regulated by c-Cbl as
evidenced by inhibition of the induction of the transcription factors
AP1 and NFAT upon c-Cbl overexpression (40) and by enhanced activation of ZAP-70 upon loss of c-Cbl (41, 42). More recently, c-Cbl was shown
to promote ubiquitination of the TCR chain (43) as well as
ubiquitination and degradation of the Lck homologue Fyn (44).
Consistently, T cells from mice lacking c-Cbl exhibited elevated
expression of TCR, CD3, CD4, CD5 and CD69, and enhanced activation upon
TCR stimulation (41, 42). On the other hand, positive signaling roles
for c-Cbl also have been reported (45-48).
Although the palmitoylation of Lck is essential for its localization to
lipid rafts, it is not clear whether protein-protein interactions also
contribute to the regulation of Lck localization. We have examined the
role of the Lck binding domains in its localization by expressing
domain-inactive mutants of Lck in J.CaM1 T cells. The Lck SH3
domain-inactive mutant was preferentially localized to lipid rafts and
incorporated more of the radioiodinated version of palmitic acid,
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid. Furthermore, the
localization of Lck to lipid rafts was diminished in c-Cbl
overexpressing Jurkat cells and was enhanced in c-Cbl knockout T cells.
Lck binding to c-Cbl in vivo was inhibited by inactivation
of the Lck SH3 domain. Our results suggest that the interaction of
c-Cbl with the SH3 domain of Lck is important for regulation of the
basal localization of Lck to lipid rafts.

EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES |
Cells, Antibodies, and Reagents--
The human leukemia T cell
line Jurkat (clone E6.1) and the Lck-deficient mutant of Jurkat
(J.CaM1) were from American Type Culture Collection. c-Cbl-deficient
(206 / ) and the corresponding c-Cbl-expressing
(230+/+) murine T cell lines (44) were generously provided
by Dr. Hamid Band (Harvard Medical School, Boston). Cells were cultured
in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum, 50 µM 2-mercaptoethanol, 2 mM
L-glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 100 IU/ml
penicillin G, and 100 µg/ml streptomycin. The Lyn-deficient DT-40
chicken B cells were grown and maintained as described (49). The
following antibodies were used: monoclonal anti-Lck, polyclonal
anti-CD48, and polyclonal anti-ERK1/2 were from Santa Cruz
Biotechnology; polyclonal anti-LAT was from Upstate Biotechnology,
Inc.; monoclonal anti-c-Cbl was from Signal Transduction Laboratories;
polyclonal anti cholera toxin B-subunit was from Calbiochem-Novabiochem; polyclonal anti-HA was from Zymed
Laboratories Inc.; monoclonal anti-HA (clone 12CA5) was from
Roche Molecular Biochemicals; and polyclonal anti-Lck used for
immunoprecipitation was described previously (27). Horseradish
peroxidase-conjugated cholera toxin B-subunit was from
Calbiochem-Novabiochem. Rhodamine-conjugated cholera toxin B-subunit
was from List Biological Laboratories.
cDNA Constructs--
The W97ALck mutant was generated from
wild type murine Lck using the transformer site-directed mutagenesis
kit (CLONTECH). The R154KLck mutant was from Dr.
Curt Ashendel (Purdue University, IN). The wild type and mutant Lck
cDNA were subcloned into the EcoRI site of pCAGGS
expression construct. The wild type LckGFP in pcDNA3 expression
construct has been described (50). Mutants of LckGFP were generated by
subcloning the BstEII fragment of Lck cDNA containing
the Lck mutations (W97ALck or R154KLck) from pCAGGS Lck constructs into
the corresponding BstEII site in pcDNA3 LckGFP. Human
c-Cbl cDNA with a hemagglutinin (HA) tag at the N terminus in
pCAGGS was described previously (49). All mutations were confirmed by
DNA sequencing.
Transient Transfections--
Cells were washed twice with RPMI
1640 containing 10% fetal bovine serum and suspended at a
concentration of 3 × 107 cells/ml. Cell suspensions
(500 µl) were mixed with Lck or HA-c-Cbl expression constructs (2.5 µg) and with 20 µg of pcDNA3 empty vector as a carrier. Cells
were electroporated at 800 microfarads/250 V using a Cell-Porator
(Invitrogen) and cultured for 18 h at 37 °C and 5%
CO2 in RPMI 1640. Transfected cells used for microscopy were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 5% fetal bovine serum.
Isolation of Lipid Rafts--
Preparation of lipid rafts was
performed as described previously with modifications (15). Jurkat or
J.CaM1 cells (5 × 107) were washed and incubated for
15 min in 1 ml of ice-cold lipid raft lysis buffer (25 mM MES, pH 6.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Triton X-100, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, 5 mM EDTA, and 20 µg/ml each of leupeptin and aprotinin). Subsequent steps were
performed at 4 °C. Lysates were homogenized with 10 strokes of a
Dounce homogenizer, transferred to 5-ml "Ultra-Clear" centrifuge
tubes (Beckman Coulter), mixed with 1 ml of 80% sucrose in MNE buffer
(25 mM MES, pH 6.5, 150 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate and 20 µg/ml each of leupeptin and aprotinin), and overlaid with 2 ml of
30% sucrose in MNE followed by 1 ml of 5% sucrose in MNE. After
ultracentrifugation for 18 h at 200,000 × g in a
Beckman SW55Ti rotor, 12 400-µl fractions were collected starting
from the top of the gradient. 100 µl of 5× RIPA buffer (150 mM NaCl, 10 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.2, 1% sodium deoxycholate, 1% Triton X-100, 0.1% SDS) was added to each of fractions 2 and 3 to solubilize lipid rafts. Where indicated, fractions
2 and 3 containing lipid rafts were combined, and fractions 10 and 11 representing Triton X-100 soluble fractions were combined. Fractions
1-12 or the pooled fractions were separated by SDS-PAGE (6-15%
gradient gels), transferred to PVDF membranes, and probed with the
appropriate antibody or with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated cholera
toxin B-subunit (to detect the ganglioside GM1). For lipid raft
isolation from 206 / and 230+/+ cells,
normalized protein amounts (5 mg) in Triton X-100 lysates were
subjected to sucrose density flotation and processed as described above. Lck protein levels were quantified using a ChemiImager 5500 (Alpha Innotech Corp.).
Lipid Raft Patching and Fluorescence Microscopy--
For all
fluorescence microscopy experiments, cells were washed in serum-free
RPMI and attached to coverslips precoated with polylysine (100 µg/ml)
by incubation for 10 min at room temperature at a concentration of
5 × 105 cells/coverslip. For fixation, cells were
treated with 3.7% paraformaldehyde in phosphate-buffered saline for 30 min at room temperature. Lipid raft or GM1 patching was performed as
described previously (50). Briefly, transfected J.CaM1 cells (1 × 106) were incubated for 30 min on ice with 100 µl of
rhodamine-conjugated cholera toxin B-subunit (CT-B) at 10 µg/ml in
phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin. Lipid
raft patching was induced by incubating the cells with anti CT-B
antibody (1:250 in phosphate-buffered saline with 0.1% bovine serum
albumin) for 30 min on ice and then 15 min at 37 °C. Samples were
examined by fluorescence microscopy as described previously (51).
Metabolic Labeling--
The generation of
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid was performed by
radioactive exchange reaction using
16-[127I]iodohexadecanoic acid (provided by Dr. John
Cassady, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH) and
Na125I(PerkinElmer Life Sciences) as
described.2 Transfected
J.CaM1 cells (1 × 107) were labeled with 0.25 mCi of
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid for 3 h at 37 °C.
Cells were washed and lysed in RIPA buffer containing 20 µg/ml each
of the protease inhibitors leupeptin and aprotinin. Lysates were
clarified at 100,000 × g for 20 min at 4 °C. For
immunoprecipitation of Lck, lysates were incubated at 4 °C for
2 h with rabbit anti-Lck polyclonal antibody bound to protein
A-Sepharose (Sigma). Immunoprecipitates were washed 3 times with RIPA
buffer. Samples were dissolved in SDS sample buffer and separated by
SDS-PAGE. Gels were dried, and radiolabeled proteins were detected by
autoradiography. Lck palmitoylation levels were quantified using a
ChemiImager 5500 (Alpha Innotech Corp.).
Cell Lysis and Immunoprecipitation--
Transfected J.CaM1 cells
were lysed with buffer containing 0.5% Triton X-100, 50 mM
Tris/HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, and 20 µg/ml each of leupeptin and aprotinin. Lysates were clarified at 15,000 × g for 20 min at 4 °C.
Lysates were either directly analyzed by SDS-PAGE (6-15% gradient
gels) or subjected to immunoprecipitation. Normalized protein amounts
(2 mg) were incubated for 2 h at 4 °C with polyclonal anti-HA
or anti-Lck antibodies bound to protein A-Sepharose. The
immunoprecipitates were washed three times in lysis buffer, subjected
to SDS-PAGE (6-15% gradient gels), and analyzed by immunoblotting for
Lck or HA.

RESULTS |
Role for the SH3 Domain in Regulating Localization of Lck to Lipid
Rafts--
Lipid rafts in T cells differentially concentrate signaling
proteins. Initially, we tested the distribution of Lck in lipid rafts
from resting Jurkat cells. Cells were washed, lysed, and subjected to
sucrose density gradient centrifugation to isolate lipid raft and
Triton X-100-soluble fractions. Fractions 1-12 were subjected to
SDS-PAGE and probed to detect Lck, LAT, c-Cbl, and GM1. As shown in
Fig. 1A, we found that lipid
rafts were concentrated in Lck, LAT, and the lipid raft marker GM1 and
did not contain any detectable c-Cbl, confirming previous results (15,
52).

Fig. 1.
A defective SH3 domain mutant of Lck is
preferentially localized to lipid rafts. A, Jurkat
cells (5 × 107) were lysed in 1 ml of 1% Triton
X-100 lysis buffer at 4 °C and subjected to sucrose gradient
ultracentrifugation to purify lipid rafts. Gradient fractions
(1-12) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF
membrane, and immunoblotted with specific antibodies to detect Lck,
LAT, and c-Cbl or probed with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated cholera
toxin to detect the ganglioside GM1. B, Lck-deficient
J.CaM1 cells were transiently transfected with empty vector (Mock) or
transfected with expression constructs encoding wild type Lck (WT),
SH2-inactive Lck (R154K), or SH3-inactive Lck (W97A). Transfected cells
(5 × 107) were lysed in 1% Triton X-100 lysis buffer
at 4 °C and were subjected to sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation
to purify lipid rafts. Fractions 1-12 from cells transfected with Lck
variants were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and
immunoblotted with anti-Lck antibody. C, the pooled
lipid raft fractions (fractions 2 and 3) and the
pooled Triton X-100-soluble fractions (fractions 10 and
11) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF
membranes, and immunoblotted with anti-Lck antibody or with anti-c-Cbl
antibody as a control for equal loading and lipid raft purity. To
assess the expression levels of Lck constructs, transfected cells
(2 × 106) were lysed in 1% Triton X-100, and lysates
were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membrane, and
immunoblotted with anti-Lck antibody and with anti-c-Cbl antibody as a
loading control (C, right panel). The results
shown are representative of five experiments.

The partitioning of Lck between lipid raft and Triton X-100-soluble
fractions is potentially regulated through posttranslational modifications (e.g. palmitoylation or phosphorylation),
protein-protein interactions, or a combination of both. The
palmitoylation of Lck is essential for targeting Lck to the plasma
membrane (5, 7), but it is unknown whether protein-protein interactions play a role in the regulation of Lck localization within the plasma membrane. We used the Lck-deficient T cell line, J.CaM1, derived from
Jurkat cells, to examine the contribution of the Lck SH2 and SH3
domains to the localization of Lck. Constructs encoding the wild type
(WT Lck), SH3 domain-inactive (W97ALck) (32), or SH2 domain-inactive
(R154KLck) (53) forms of Lck were transiently expressed and analyzed
for localization to lipid rafts. As shown in Fig. 1B,
W97ALck was enriched in lipid rafts as compared with WT Lck and
R154KLck. To compare further the distribution of Lck variants, we
pooled fractions containing lipid rafts (fractions 2 and 3) and
fractions representing Triton X-100-soluble lysates (fractions 10 and
11). W97ALck was preferentially localized to lipid rafts as compared
with WT Lck and R154KLck (Fig. 1C, left panel).
Densitometric analysis indicated that W97ALck was 2-3-fold enriched in
rafts compared with WT Lck and R154KLck. This preferential localization
of W97ALck to lipid rafts was accompanied by an ~2-fold decrease in
the amount in the Triton X-100-soluble fraction as compared with WT Lck
and R154KLck (Fig. 1C, middle panel).
Immunoblotting of whole cell lysates verified equal expression levels
of wild type and mutant Lck (Fig. 1C, right
panel). These results showed that inactivation of the SH3 domain
resulted in enhanced Lck partitioning to lipid rafts suggesting that
the SH3 domain negatively contributes to the localization of Lck within
lipid rafts. In contrast, the SH2 domain does not appear to play a
dominant role in this localization.
W97ALckGFP Preferentially Colocalizes with Lipid Raft
Patches--
We next investigated the role of the SH3 domain in the
subcellular localization of Lck in intact cells. To accomplish this, we
generated expression constructs with the cDNA encoding W97ALck and
R154KLck fused upstream from the cDNA for green fluorescent protein
(GFP). It was demonstrated that GFP fused to the C terminus of Lck (WT
LckGFP) does not affect Lck function and subcellular localization (50).
Constructs encoding WT, R154K, or W97A LckGFP were transiently
expressed in J.CaM1 cells and examined by fluorescence microscopy. We
observed that WT LckGFP and R154KLckGFP localized to the plasma
membrane and to intracellular structures reported to be late endocytic
vesicles (5, 50). W97ALckGFP also localized to the plasma membrane but
showed minimal localization to the late endocytic vesicles when
compared with WT LckGFP or R154KLckGFP (Fig.
2A, left panel). To
verify that the W97ALckGFP subcellular localization was distinct from
WT LckGFP, we used the Lyn-deficient DT40 B cell line. As shown in Fig.
2A, right panel, W97ALckGFP exhibited a
similar intracellular localization as in J.CaM1 cells. Analysis by
confocal microscopy confirmed the above results and showed that both WT
LckGFP and W97ALckGFP were not localized inside the nucleus of J.CaM1
cells (data not shown). These results indicate that inactivation of the
SH3 domain did not affect the localization of Lck to the plasma
membrane but appeared to minimize its localization to late endocytic
vesicles.

Fig. 2.
The SH3-inactive Lck displays enhanced
colocalization with lipid raft patches. A, the
indicated LckGFP constructs were transfected into J.CaM1 or
Lyn-deficient DT40 cells. After 20 h, cells were attached to
polylysine-coated coverslips, fixed, and examined by fluorescence
microscopy. B, J.CaM1 cells were transiently
transfected with WT LckGFP or W97ALckGFP. After 20 h, cells were
incubated with rhodamine-conjugated cholera toxin B-subunit (CT-B) and
treated by cross-linking with anti-CT-B antibody. Cells were attached
to polylysine-coated coverslips, fixed, and examined by fluorescence
microscopy. C, J.CaM1 cells transfected with WT LckGFP
or with W97ALckGFP were treated as in B. The percentage of
cells showing overlap (complete colocalization) between LckGFP and
rhodamine CT-B signals was determined. Between 40 and 100 transfected
cells showing lipid raft patching were counted from five independent
experiments. The results shown are representative of eight
experiments.

|
We next compared the extent of colocalization of W97ALckGFP and WT
LckGFP with lipid rafts using rhodamine-conjugated cholera toxin
B-subunit (CT-B), which binds with high affinity to the lipid raft
constituent GM1 (54). J.CaM1 cells transiently expressing WT LckGFP or
W97ALckGFP were incubated with CT-B followed by cross-linking with
anti-CT-B antibody. Cells were washed, fixed onto coverslips, and
examined by fluorescence microscopy. Significantly, W97ALckGFP showed
enhanced colocalization with lipid raft patches as compared with WT
LckGFP (Fig. 2B, merged images,
right panel). We observed that increasing the time of
treatment with the anti-CT-B antibody leads to increased colocalization
of WT LckGFP with lipid raft patches (data not shown). We quantified
the fraction of transfected cells that showed complete coclustering of
the LckGFP proteins and lipid raft patches. As shown in Fig.
2C, 93% of W97ALckGFP coclustered with lipid raft
patches as compared with 13% of WT LckGFP. These results further
support the conclusion that the SH3 domain negatively regulates Lck
localization to lipid rafts.
Inactivation of the SH3 Domain Increased the Level of Incorporation
of 16-[125I]Iodohexadecanoic Acid into Lck--
Several
palmitoylated proteins are preferentially enriched in lipid rafts (10).
Because W97ALck is predominantly localized to lipid rafts, we tested
whether it would exhibit a different degree of palmitoylation.
Therefore, we compared the incorporation of
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid into WT Lck and W97ALck.
This radioiodinated version of palmitic acid has been used previously
to study palmitoylation and offers considerable advantage in exposure
time over commercially available [3H]palmitic acid
(55).2 J.CaM1 cells were transiently transfected with
control vector, WT Lck, or W97ALck. Transfectants were incubated with
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid, and Lck was
immunoprecipitated and detected by autoradiography. As can be seen in
Fig. 3, elevated levels of the
radioactive probe were incorporated into W97ALck compared with WT Lck.
Densitometric analysis indicated that W97ALck incorporated ~10-fold
more of the radioactive probe as compared with WT Lck. The specificity
of the immunoprecipitation was confirmed using preimmune rabbit serum
as a control. Immunoblot analysis of the immunoprecipitates confirmed
equal levels of WT Lck and W97ALck (Fig. 3, lower
panel).

Immunoprecipitates were subjected to SDS-PAGE and analyzed by
autoradiography (upper panel) or by immunoblotting with
anti-Lck antibody (lower panel). The exposure time was 1 day. Molecular weight standards and the migration position of Lck are
given. This experiment was performed twice with similar results.

Overexpression of c-Cbl, a Reported Ligand of the Lck SH3 Domain,
Results in Depletion of Lck from Lipid Rafts--
The enhanced
localization of W97ALck to lipid rafts suggested that binding partners
of the SH3 domain of Lck contributed to the regulation of Lck
localization. The Lck SH3 domain has been reported to bind to several
proteins including c-Cbl (30-34). Because c-Cbl was found exclusively
outside lipid rafts in our preparations from Jurkat cells, it was a
potential candidate for keeping Lck in the non-raft region of the
plasma membrane. To test this possibility, we transfected an expression
construct encoding HA-tagged c-Cbl into Jurkat cells and examined the
localization of Lck as described above. As shown in Fig.
4A (upper panel),
the localization of Lck to lipid rafts was decreased in
HA-c-Cbl-transfected cells as compared with control cells. This
depletion of Lck from lipid rafts was accompanied by a slight increase
in the amount of Lck in Triton X-100-soluble fractions in
HA-c-Cbl-transfected cells as compared with control cells (Fig.
4A, lower panel). Immunoblotting for the
glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein CD48 confirmed that c-Cbl
overexpression had no effect on the localization of CD48 in rafts (Fig.
4A, upper panel). Immunoblotting for ERK1/2 confirmed equal gel loading of the pooled Triton X-100-soluble fractions (Fig. 4A, lower panel). As can be seen
in Fig. 4B, immunoblotting of whole cell lysates confirmed
that equal amounts of Lck were present in the transfected cells and
verified the expression of HA-c-Cbl. These results suggest that Lck
interaction with c-Cbl can regulate Lck localization to lipid
rafts.

c-Cbl overexpression decreased Lck
localization to lipid rafts. Jurkat cells were transfected with
empty vector (Mock) or transfected with an HA-c-Cbl expression
construct. After 20 h, cells were harvested. A,
transfected cells (5 × 107) were lysed in 1% Triton
X-100 lysis buffer at 4 °C and were subjected to sucrose gradient
ultracentrifugation to purify lipid rafts. The pooled lipid raft
fractions (fractions 2 and 3) and the pooled Triton X-100 soluble
fractions (fractions 10 and 11) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred
to PVDF membranes, and immunoblotted with anti-Lck antibody, anti-CD48,
or anti-ERK1/2 antibodies. B, transfected cells (2 × 106) were lysed in 1% Triton X-100, and lysates were
separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and immunoblotted
with anti-Lck and anti-c-Cbl antibodies or with anti-ERK1/2 antibody as
a loading control. The results shown are representative of three
experiments.

Lck Localization to Lipid Rafts Is Enhanced in
c-Cbl / T Cells--
To investigate
further the role of c-Cbl in regulating the localization of Lck to
lipid rafts, we used the c-Cbl-deficient T cell line
(206 / ), derived from c-Cbl knockout mice, and a
corresponding c-Cbl containing control T cell line (230+/+)
(44). First we verified that similar levels of Lck were present in the
two cell lines (Fig. 5B,
right panel), because it had been reported that the
206 / cells contain more of the Src family member Fyn
(44). To determine the localization of Lck in the two cell lines,
lysates from 206 / and 230+/+ cells were
subjected to sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The distribution
of Lck in fractions 1-12 and in pooled fractions was determined as
described above. Significantly, in c-Cbl / cells, the
presence of Lck in lipid rafts was enhanced 2-fold compared with
c-Cbl-expressing cells (Fig. 5, A and B). We also observed a 1.6-fold decrease in the amount of Lck in the Triton X-100-soluble fraction in 206 / cells compared with
230+/+ cells. Immunoblotting for CD48 and ERK1/2
demonstrated that the distribution of these molecules between lipid
rafts and the non-lipid raft region of the membrane was not altered by
the absence of c-Cbl (Fig. 5B, left and
middle panel). Immunoblot analysis of whole cell lysates
confirmed the absence of c-Cbl in 206 / cells (Fig.
5B, right panel). The enhanced localization of
Lck to lipid rafts in 206 / cells further supports the
conclusion that the Lck-c-Cbl interaction negatively regulates Lck
localization to lipid rafts.

Lck is preferentially localized to lipid
rafts in c-Cbl / T cells. c-Cbl / T
cells (206 / ) (6.5 × 107) and
corresponding c-Cbl-expressing T cells (230+/+) (10 × 107) were lysed in 1% Triton X-100 lysis buffer at
4 °C, and lysates were subjected to sucrose gradient
ultracentrifugation and SDS-PAGE analysis. A, fractions
1-12 were analyzed by probing for GM1 or Lck. B, the
pooled lipid raft fractions (fractions 2 and 3) were analyzed by
immunoblotting for Lck and CD48, and the pooled Triton X-100-soluble
fractions (fractions 10 and 11) were analyzed by immunoblotting for Lck
and ERK 1/2. To assess protein levels, equal volumes from
206 / and 230+/+ lysates were directly
analyzed by immunoblotting with anti-Lck and anti-c-Cbl antibodies or
with anti-ERK as a loading control (B, right
panel). This experiment was performed twice with similar
results.

SH3 Domain Is Required for the Association of Lck with
c-Cbl--
c-Cbl has been reported to bind the SH3 domain of Src
family kinases. We therefore tested the requirement of the SH3
domain of Lck for association with c-Cbl in
vivo. To accomplish this, J.CaM1 cells were transiently
transfected with control vector or expression constructs encoding WT
Lck or W97ALck with or without HA-c-Cbl. Transfected cells were lysed,
and proteins were immunoprecipitated with anti-HA antibody and analyzed
by immunoblotting for Lck. Although a readily detectable association
between WT Lck and c-Cbl was observed, the association of W97ALck with
c-Cbl was diminished (Fig.
6A). Lysates were also
immunoprecipitated with anti-Lck antibody followed by HA
immunoblotting. As shown in Fig. 6B, c-Cbl was associated
with WT Lck but very weakly with W97ALck. The reduced W97ALck
association with c-Cbl indicated that a functional SH3 domain is
required for an optimal constitutive interaction between Lck and c-Cbl.
Lck was not detected in HA immunoprecipitates from cells transfected
with Lck alone (Fig. 6A), and HA also was not detected in
Lck immunoprecipitates from cells transfected with HA-c-Cbl alone (Fig.
6B), verifying the specificity of the coimmunoprecipitation. Immunoblot analysis showed comparable levels of expression of WT Lck
and W97ALck in the transfected cells (Fig. 6A). Likewise, comparable levels of expression of HA-c-Cbl were detected (Fig. 6B). These results support the conclusion that the SH3
domain of Lck negatively regulates Lck localization to lipid rafts
through an interaction with c-Cbl.

DISCUSSION |
We have identified a role for the SH3 domain in the
regulation of Lck localization to lipid rafts, whereby this domain
mediates Lck binding to the lipid raft-excluded protein c-Cbl. This
conclusion is based on the following observations: (i) the SH3
domain-inactive W97ALck preferentially localizes to lipid rafts
isolated biochemically or visualized by microscopy; (ii) W97ALck
incorporates more of 16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic
([125I]palmitic acid) acid in comparison with wild type
Lck; (iii) overexpression of the Lck SH3 domain ligand c-Cbl depletes
Lck from lipid rafts; (iv) Lck shows enhanced localization to lipid rafts in c-Cbl-deficient T cells; and (v) Lck associates with c-Cbl in
an SH3 domain-dependent manner.
The observation that W97ALck is enriched in lipid rafts
(Figs. 1 and 2) suggests that the SH3 domain negatively regulates the
localization of Lck to lipid rafts in unstimulated Jurkat T cells by
binding to a protein found outside lipid rafts. Inactivation of the SH2
domain does not affect basal localization of Lck to lipid rafts (Fig.
1), which is consistent with the role of the SH2 domain in mediating
interactions following T cell activation. W97ALck has slightly elevated
catalytic activity consistent with the autoinhibitory role of the SH3
domains in regulating Src kinase activity (32). Therefore, the
possibility exists that the enhanced lipid raft localization of W97ALck
is due to increased tyrosine kinase activity. However, catalytically
activated Lck (Y505FLck) and kinase-inactive Lck (K273RLck) both
distribute to lipid rafts similar to wild type Lck suggesting that the
kinase activity of Lck does not exert a major influence in the
regulation of Lck basal localization to lipid rafts (7). In apparent
contrast to the results presented here, Patel et al. (31)
recently reported a similar distribution of an SH3 Lck mutant and wild
type Lck between rafts and non-raft regions of the membrane. The basis of this discrepancy is not known, although it may reflect the use of
different cell lines, different detergents for the preparation of lipid
rafts, and different Lck SH3 mutants in the two studies.
Interestingly, inactivation of the SH3 domain leads to the
enhanced incorporation of 16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid
into Lck (Fig. 3). This indicates that either W97ALck has a higher rate
of turnover of palmitate than wild type Lck or that W97ALck is more
extensively palmitoylated than wild type Lck, or both. The half-life of
[3H]palmitate on Lck in Jurkat cells is 1-2
h,3 well within the 3-h
labeling period used in the experiments reported here. Based on the
results of Jackson et al.3 and the 10-fold
increase in the level of 16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid
incorporated into the W97ALck mutant in the 3-h incubation period (Fig.
3), it is likely that the turnover rate of palmitate on W97ALck is
higher than that for wild type Lck. It is also possible that more of
the W97ALck is dually palmitoylated than wild type Lck. However, this
by itself could not account for the high level of incorporation of
16-[125I]iodohexadecanoic acid into W97ALck relative to
wild type Lck because W97ALck was only 2-3-fold enriched in rafts.
The increased turnover rate of palmitate on W97ALck raises intriguing
questions regarding the mechanism of palmitoylation and
depalmitoylation of Lck. Our data do not distinguish between whether
the higher rate is due to its preferential localization into lipid
rafts or whether the higher rate contributes to its preferential
localization into lipid rafts, two possibilities that are not mutually
exclusive. A very recent study by Dunphy et al. (56) reports
that protein acyltransferase activity, catalyzing the enzymatic
palmitoylation of G -subunits, is preferentially localized to lipid
rafts. In light of these results, we think it is likely that the
increase in the rate of palmitate turnover in the W97ALck mutant is due
to its increased presence in lipid rafts. Palmitoylation is a
reversible process, and the preferential colocalization of W97ALck and
protein acyltransferase would facilitate the rapid repalmitoylation of
W97ALck relative to wild type Lck. The subcellular location of the
thioesterase responsible for the removal of palmitate from Lck is not
known, so it is not clear if depalmitoylation of Lck occurs within the
rafts or in the non-raft regions of the plasma membrane. Either way,
our data are consistent with increased repalmitoylation of the SH3
domain mutant of Lck within membrane rafts and the subsequent
preference of rapidly repalmitoylated W97ALck for the lipid raft
environment. Alternatively, it is possible that the palmitoylation of
Lck is nonenzymatic, and examples of nonenzymatic palmitoylation
in vitro have been reported (57, 58).
Several mechanisms are possible for the increased
localization of the Lck SH3 domain mutant to lipid rafts. As discussed
above, the rapid repalmitoylation of the mutant likely is a factor.
Because the SH3 domain of Lck is known to bind to proline residues
within its own linker region, an interaction that contributes to an
inactive conformation, the altered conformation of W97ALck may
contribute to its subdomain membrane localization and/or rapid
repalmitoylation. Conformational changes affecting the susceptibility
to protein acylthioesterases and/or protein acyltransferases have been
suggested for the heterotrimeric G protein subunits (59-61).
Our results indicate that c-Cbl plays a role in keeping Lck from
entering membrane rafts. c-Cbl is primarily cytosolic in resting Jurkat
cells, although a readily detectable fraction is found in the
particulate (membrane) fraction when cells are homogenized in the
absence of detergent (62). Because Lck is exclusively membrane-associated, it is presumably this membrane-associated c-Cbl
that is influencing the localization of Lck. Although the association
of c-Cbl with some Src family members is readily demonstrated in
vivo (37-39), its association with Lck appears to be relatively weak (39). In resting cells the SH3 domains of the Src kinases mediate
the association between Src family members and c-Cbl, and in this
regard the SH3 domain of Lck readily associated with c-Cbl in
vitro (30-34). Our results suggest that one consequence of the
interaction between the SH3 domain of Lck and c-Cbl is to sequester Lck
away from the lipid raft-associated protein acyltransferase. It is of
interest to note that although W97ALck mediates the initiation of T
cell receptor signaling, it fails to support activation of the
mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway (32), through what appears to
be a failure to interact with CD28 (35). It should be noted that a
population of Lck is found outside of lipid rafts in c-Cbl-deficient T
cells, suggesting that mechanisms other than binding to c-Cbl
contribute to regulating the basal localization of Lck.
In conclusion, we provide evidence that the SH3 domain negatively
regulates Lck basal localization to lipid rafts and that association
with c-Cbl contributes to this process. Further understanding of the
functional significance of the SH3 domain in the signaling functions of
Lck and other Src kinases will be important.
