Kinase suppressor of ras is necessary for tumor necrosis factor alpha activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase/mitogen-activated protein kinase in intestinal epithelial cells
Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase activity is essential for tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha receptor 1 regulation of intestinal epithelial cell proliferation. However, the mechanism of TNF-alpha mediated activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/M1AP kinase has not been established clearly. Both TNF-alpha and cell-permeable ceramide have been reported to increase the kinase activity of kinase suppressor of Ras (KSR). To determine the role of KSR in TNF-alpha-induced ERK1/ERK2 activation, we studied young adult mouse colon cells expressing a dominant-negative, kinase-inactive (ki) KSR. We report that TNF-alpha, a cell-permeable ceramide, and sphingomyelinase stimulate ERK1/ERK2 activation and increase the phosphoserine content of KSR, which are inhibited by kiKSR expression in intact cells. Furthermore, TNF-alpha-induced Raf-1 threonine phosphorylation, kinase activity toward MEK1, and association with KSR are also inhibited by kiKSR expression. Our data also show by sequential in vitro kinase assays that TNF-alpha enhances KSR phosphorylation of Raf-1 on threonine, enhancing Raf-1 kinase activity toward MAP kinase kinase. We therefore conclude that KSR is an essential upstream regulator of TNF-alpha-stimulated ERK1/ERK2 activation, most likely mediated via direct phosphorylation of Raf-1.
