DiseaseJAK3_HUMAN Defects in JAK3 are a cause of severe combined immunodeficiency autosomal recessive T-cell-negative/B-cell-positive/NK-cell-negative (T(-)B(+)NK(-) SCID) [MIM:600802. A form of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of rare congenital disorders characterized by impairment of both humoral and cell-mediated immunity, leukopenia, and low or absent antibody levels. Patients present in infancy recurrent, persistent infections by opportunistic organisms. The common characteristic of all types of SCID is absence of T-cell-mediated cellular immunity due to a defect in T-cell development.[1] [2] [3] [:][4] [5] [6] [7] [8] FunctionJAK3_HUMAN Non-receptor tyrosine kinase involved in various processes such as cell growth, development, or differentiation. Mediates essential signaling events in both innate and adaptive immunity and plays a crucial role in hematopoiesis during T-cells development. In the cytoplasm, plays a pivotal role in signal transduction via its association with type I receptors sharing the common subunit gamma such as IL2R, IL4R, IL7R, IL9R, IL15R and IL21R. Following ligand binding to cell surface receptors, phosphorylates specific tyrosine residues on the cytoplasmic tails of the receptor, creating docking sites for STATs proteins. Subsequently, phosphorylates the STATs proteins once they are recruited to the receptor. Phosphorylated STATs then form homodimer or heterodimers and translocate to the nucleus to activate gene transcription. For example, upon IL2R activation by IL2, JAK1 and JAK3 molecules bind to IL2R beta (IL2RB) and gamma chain (IL2RG) subunits inducing the tyrosine phosphorylation of both receptor subunits on their cytoplasmic domain. Then, STAT5A AND STAT5B are recruited, phosphorylated and activated by JAK1 and JAK3. Once activated, dimerized STAT5 translocates to the nucleus and promotes the transcription of specific target genes in a cytokine-specific fashion.[9] [10] [11] Publication Abstract from PubMedProtein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is the prototypical protein tyrosine phosphatase and plays an essential role in the regulation of several kinase-driven signalling pathways. PTP1B displays a preference for bisphosphorylated substrates. Here we identify PTP1B as an inhibitor of IL-6 and show that, in vitro, it can dephosphorylate all four members of the JAK family. In order to gain a detailed understanding of the molecular mechanism of JAK dephosphorylation, we undertook a structural and biochemical analysis of the dephosphorylation reaction. We identified a product-trapping PTP1B mutant that allowed visualisation of the tyrosine and phosphate products of the reaction and a substrate-trapping mutant with a vastly decreased off-rate compared to those previously described. The latter mutant was used to determine the structure of bisphosphorylated JAK peptides bound to the enzyme active site. These structures revealed that the downstream phosphotyrosine preferentially engaged the active site, in contrast to the analogous region of IRK. Biochemical analysis confirmed this preference. In this binding mode, the previously identified second aryl binding site remains unoccupied and the non-substrate phosphotyrosine engages Arg47. Mutation of this arginine disrupts the preference for the downstream phosphotyrosine. This study reveals a previously unappreciated plasticity in how PTP1B interacts with different substrates.
