CLONING

The protein product of the CBL protooncogene (165360) is prominently tyrosine phosphorylated in response to insulin (176730) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes but not in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. After insulin-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation, CBL specifically associates with endogenous CRK (164762) and FYN (137025). These results suggest a role for tyrosine-phosphorylated CBL in adipocyte activation by insulin. Ribon et al. (1998) used full-length CBL as a target protein to screen a fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocyte cDNA library using the yeast 2-hybrid system. They isolated cDNAs encompassing the entire coding region of Cap (CBL-associated protein) from a mouse embryo cDNA expression library by using a functional screen with a defined SH3 ligand peptide. The unique structure of Cap includes 3 adjacent Src homology-3 (SH3) domains in the C terminus and a region showing significant sequence similarity with the peptide hormone sorbin. Both Cap mRNA and proteins were expressed predominantly in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and not in 3T3-L1 fibroblasts. By Northern blot analysis of mouse tissues, Cap expression was detected in greatest abundance in heart, liver, skeletal muscle, and kidney; lesser amounts were detected in brain and lung, and expression in spleen and testis was not detected. Scott (2000) considered the mouse Cap protein to be the probable ortholog of human SH3P12 (GenBank GENBANK AF136380). Spinocerebellar ataxia-7 (SCA7; 164500) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by expansion of a CAG repeat in the coding region of the SCA7 gene. Ataxin-7, encoded by the SCA7 gene, is a protein expressed in many tissues, including the CNS. Lebre et al. (2001) used a 2-hybrid approach to screen a human retina cDNA library for ataxin-7-binding proteins and isolated R85, a splice variant of SH3P12. SH3P12 gene products were expressed in Purkinje cells in the cerebellum.

GENE FUNCTION

Ribon et al. (1998) found that Cap associated with CBL in 3T3-L1 adipocytes independently of insulin stimulation in vivo and in vitro in an SH3 domain-mediated manner. Furthermore, Ribon et al. (1998) detected the association of Cap with insulin receptor (147670). Insulin stimulation resulted in the dissociation of Cap from the insulin receptor. Taken together, Ribon et al. (1998) concluded that CAP represents a novel CBL-binding protein in adipocytes likely to participate in insulin signaling. Insulin stimulates the transport of glucose into fat and muscle cells and initiates its actions by binding to its tyrosine kinase receptor, leading to the phosphorylation of intracellular substrates. One such substrate is the CBL protooncogene product. CBL is recruited to the insulin receptor by interaction with the adaptor protein CAP, through 1 of 3 adjacent SH3 domains in the C terminus of CAP. Upon phosphorylation of CBL, the CAP-CBL complex dissociates from the insulin receptor and moves to a caveolin (see 601047)-enriched triton-insoluble membrane fraction (Mastick et al., 1995). To identify a molecular mechanism underlying this subcellular redistribution, Baumann et al. (2000) screened a yeast 2-hybrid library using the N-terminal region of CAP and identified the caveolar protein flotillin (131560). Flotillin forms a ternary complex with CAP and CBL, directing the localization of the CAP-CBL complex to a lipid raft subdomain of the plasma membrane. Expression of the N-terminal domain of CAP in 3T3-L1 adipocytes blocks the stimulation of glucose transport by ... More on the omim web site
