Crystal structure of Fus3 phosphorylated on Tyr182

Overview

Scaffold proteins organize signaling proteins into pathways and are often, viewed as passive assembly platforms. We found that the Ste5 scaffold has, a more active role in the yeast mating pathway: A fragment of Ste5, allosterically activated autophosphorylation of the mitogen-activated, protein kinase Fus3. The resulting form of Fus3 is partially active-it is, phosphorylated on only one of two key residues in the activation loop., Unexpectedly, at a systems level, autoactivated Fus3 appears to have a, negative regulatory role, promoting Ste5 phosphorylation and a decrease in, pathway transcriptional output. Thus, scaffolds not only direct basic, pathway connectivity but can precisely tune quantitative pathway, input-output properties.
