Crystal Structure of a beta-catenin/BCL9/Tcf4 complex
Contents |
Overview
The canonical Wnt pathway plays critical roles in embryonic development, stem cell growth, and tumorigenesis. Stimulation of the Wnt pathway leads, to the association of beta-catenin with Tcf and BCL9 in the nucleus, resulting in the transactivation of Wnt target genes. We have determined, the crystal structure of a beta-catenin/BCL9/Tcf-4 triple complex at 2.6 A, resolution. Our studies reveal that the beta-catenin binding site of BCL9, is distinct from that of most other beta-catenin partners and forms a good, target for developing drugs that block canonical Wnt/beta-catenin, signaling. The BCL9 beta-catenin binding domain (CBD) forms an alpha helix, that binds to the first armadillo repeat of beta-catenin, which can be, mutated to prevent beta-catenin binding to BCL9 without affecting cadherin, or alpha-catenin binding. We also demonstrate that beta-catenin Y142, phosphorylation, which has been proposed to regulate BCL9-2 binding, does, not directly affect the interaction of beta-catenin with either BCL9 or, BCL9-2.
