文摘

Interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) is a crucial signaling kinase in the immune system, involved in Toll-like receptor signaling. Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) is a central player in cell migration that regulates actin polymerization and connects signaling events to cytoskeletal remodeling. A VASP鈥揑RAK1 interaction is thought to be important in controlling macrophage migration in response to protein kinase C-蔚 activation. We show that the monomeric VASP EVH1 domain directly binds to the ₁₆₈WPPPP₁₇₂ motif in the IRAK1 undefined domain (IRAK1-UD) with moderate affinity (K_D^App = 203 卤 3 渭M). We further show that this motif adopts distinct cis and trans isomers for the Trp168鈥揚ro169 peptide bond with nearly equal populations, and that binding to the VASP EVH1 domain is specific for the trans isomer, coupling binding to isomerization. Nuclear magnetic resonance line shape analysis and tryptophan fluorescence experiments reveal the complete kinetics and thermodynamics of the binding reaction, showing diffusion-limited binding to the trans isomer followed by slow, isomerization-dependent binding. We further demonstrate that the peptidyl-prolyl isomerase cyclophilin A (CypA) catalyzes isomerization of the Trp168鈥揚ro169 peptide bond and accelerates binding of the IRAK1-UD to the VASP EVH1 domain. We propose that binding of IRAK1 to tetrameric VASP is regulated by avidity through the assembly of IRAK1 onto receptor-anchored signaling complexes and that an isomerase such as CypA may modulate IRAK1 signaling in vivo. These studies demonstrate a direct interaction between IRAK1 and VASP and suggest a potential mechanism for how this interaction might be regulated by both assembly of IRAK1 onto an activated signaling complex and PPIase enzymes.
