B-cell linker
Template:Short description Template:Cs1 config An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox B-cell linker (BLNK) protein is expressed in B cells and macrophages and plays a large role in B cell receptor signaling.[1] Like all adaptor proteins, BLNK has no known intrinsic enzymatic activity.[2] Its function is to temporally and spatially coordinate and regulate downstream signaling effectors in B cell receptor (BCR) signaling, which is important in B cell development.[3] Binding of these downstream effectors is dependent on BLNK phosphorylation.[4][5] BLNK is encoded by the BLNK gene[4][6] and is also known as SLP-65,[7] BASH,[8] and BCA.[9]
Structure and localization
BLNK consists of a N-terminal leucine zipper motif followed by an acidic region, a proline-rich region, and a C-terminal SH2 domain.[10][1] The leucine zipper motif allows BLNK to localize to the plasma membrane, presumably by coiled-coil interactions with a membrane protein.[1] This leucine zipper motif distinguishes BLNK from lymphoctye cytosolic protein 2, also known as LCP-2 or SLP-76, which plays a similar role in T cell receptor signaling.[11] Although LCP-2 has an N-terminal heptad-like organization of leucine and isoleucine residues like BLNK, it has not been experimentally shown to have the leucine zipper motif.[12] Recruitment of BLNK to the plasma membrane is also achieved by binding of the SH2 domain of BLNK to a non-ITAM phospho-tyrosine on the cytoplasmic domain of CD79A, which is a part of Igα and the B cell receptor complex.[13][14][15]
Function
BLNK's function and importance in B cell development were first illustrated in BLNK deficient DT40 cells, a chicken B cell line.[3] DT40 cells had interrupted B cell development: there was no calcium mobilization response in the B cell, impaired activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases p38, JNK, and somewhat inhibited ERK activation upon (BCR) activation as compared to wild type DT40 cells.[3] In knockout mice, BLNK deficiency results in a partial block in B cell development,[16][17] and in humans BLNK deficiency results in a much more profound block in B cell development.[18][1]
Linker or adaptor proteins provide mechanisms by which receptors can amplify and regulate downstream effector proteins.[2] BLNK is essential for normal B-cell development as part of the B cell receptor signaling pathway. [supplied by OMIM][6][19][20]
Evidence also suggests that BLNK may have tumor suppressive activity through its interaction with Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) [21][22] and regulation of the pre-B cell checkpoint.[10][23]
Phosphorylation and interactions
The acidic region of BLNK contains several inducibly phosphorylated tyrosine residues, at least five of which are found in humans.[24] Evidence suggests that BLNK is phosphorylated by the tyrosine-protein kinase Syk after B cell receptor activation.[4][5][20][25] Phosphorylation of these residues provides docking sites necessary for downstream protein-protein interactions between BLNK and the SH2 domain-containing proteins Grb2,[4][7][13][26] PLCG2, Btk, the Vav protein family, and Nck.[27][5][4] BLNK has also been shown to interact with SH3KBP1[28] and MAP4K1.[29] A more recent mass spectrometry study of BLNK in DT40 cells found that at least 41 unique serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues are phosphorylated on BLNK.[30]
