Dysregulation of their activities can result in different abnormal phenotypes particularly, tumor progression and metastasis. Hence, regulators of Rho GTPases such as Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factors (RhoGEFs) and Rho GTPase-activating proteins (RhoGAPs), are critical for normal cellular responses and are targets for subversion during oncogenic transformation. CdGAP (Cdc42 GTPase-activating protein) is a member of a well-conserved subfamily of RhoGAP proteins and a negative regulator of the small Rho GTPases, Rac1 and Cdc42. Associated with a rare developmental disorder (AOS, Adams-Oliver Syndrome) and required for a normal angiogenesis, CdGAP plays important roles in the regulation of cell migration and proliferation during early development. In addition, recent findings characterize CdGAP as an essential synergistic component between TGFβ and HER2/Neu/ErbB-2 signaling pathways which play a positive role in cancer, particularly breast cancer. CdGAP is regulated by lipid binding, protein-protein interactions and phosphorylation, still these mechanisms are not well understood. In this work we first investigate the interaction between CdGAP and its negative regulator, the endocytic protein Intersectin. Using an in vitro approach, we identify a novel, atypical xKx(K/R) (SKSKK) motif in the basic rich (BR) region of CdGAP that directly interacts with the Intersectin-SH3D domain. Moreover, the well-conserved motif is required for the regulation of CdGAP activity following Intersectin binding. Next, we investigate CdGAP phosphorylation and identify two regulatory phospho-serines in the C-terminal (CT) tail, Ser-1093 and Ser-1163, that are phosphorylated by the AGC-kinase family member, RSK1. Finally, we show that 14-3-3 family members bind and regulate both the cellular localization and activity of CdGAP in a Ser-1093 and Ser-1163 phosphorylation-dependent manner. Overall, this work provides two novel CdGAP- regulatory mechanisms that can be applied in therapeutic approaches targeting this RhoGAP, particularly in breast cancers. iii | P a g e Résumé Les petites protéines G de la famille Rho sont des commutateurs moléculaires qui contrôlent divers procédés cellulaires associés notamment, à la régulation du cytosquelette et jouent par conséquent, un rôle clé dans la régulation de la motilité cellulaire. La dérégulation de leur activité peut entrainer des aberrations se manifestant en particulier, par une progression du cancer et des métastases. Ainsi, les protéines régulatrices comme les facteurs d'échange de nucléotide (RhoGEFs) et les protéines activatrices des Rho GTPases (RhoGAPs) sont essentielles pour une signalisation cellulaire normale et sont en général, affectées lors des transformations oncogéniques. CdGAP (Cdc42-GTPase activating protein) est un membre d’une sous-famille de protéines RhoGAPs bien conservée qui régule négativement les Rho GTPases Cdc42 et Rac1. Associé à un trouble du développement rare, le syndrome d'Adams-Oliver ou AOS et nécessaire pour une angiogenèse normale, CdGAP joue un rôle important dans la régulation de la migration et la prolifération cellulaires au cours du développement. Récemment, CdGAP est identifié comme une composante synergique essentielle entre les voies de signalisation de TGFβ et HER2/Neu/ErbB-2 et qui joue un rôle proto- oncogénique, en particulier dans le cancer du sein. CdGAP est régulée par des mécanismes incluant les lipides, les interactions protéine-protéine et la phosphorylation, néanmoins, ces mécanismes ne sont pas bien élucidés. Dans cette étude, nous étudions en premier l'interaction entre CdGAP et son régulateur négatif, la protéine endocytique, Intersectin. En utilisant une approche in vitro, nous identifions un nouveau motif atypique, xKx (K/R) (SKSKK) dans la région riche en résidus basiques (BR) de CdGAP interagissant directement avec le domaine SH3D d’Intersectin. Le motif est en outre, bien conservé est requis pour la régulation de l'activité CdGAP par Intersectin. Par la suite, nous identifions deux sites de phosphorylation clés dans la région C- terminale de CdGAP, Ser-1093 et Ser-1163 qui sont phosphorylés par la protéine AGC- kinase, RSK1. Nous démontrons finalement, que les protéines adaptatrices 14-3-3 lient et régulent la localisation cellulaire et l’activité de CdGAP d’une manière dépendante de la phosphorylation des résidus, Ser-1093 et Ser-1163. La présente étude identifie deux nouveaux mécanismes de régulation de CdGAP qui peuvent être exploités dans des approches thérapeutiques ciblant cette protéine, notamment dans les cancers du sein. iv | P a g e Table of Contents ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS……………………………………………………………………....ii ABSTRACT…………………………………………………………………….........................iii RÉSUMÉ………………………………………………………………………………………...iv LIST OF TABLES……………………………………………………………………..............viii LIST OF FIGURES…………………………………………………………………….............ix ABBREVIATIONS………………………………………………………………………..…......x CONTRIBUTION OF AUTHORS TO MANUSCRIPTS……………………………………xvi ORIGINAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO KNOWLEDGE…....................................................xviii SUBMITTED MANUSCRIPTS…………………………………………………………….…xix CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION AND LITERATURE REVIEW…………………………….1 1.0 General introduction…………………………………………… ………………………….2 1.1 Overview of the small GTPases……………………………………….………………….2 1.1.1 Ras GTPase regulation………………………………………………………………….2 1.1.2 Roles of Ras GTPases……………………………………………………………….….4 1 .2 The Rho GTPase subfamily……………………………………………………………....7 1.2.1 Rho GTPase regulation ………………………………………………………………....7 1.2.1.1 Rho Guanine nucleotide Exchange Factors (RhoGEFs)…………………………..8 1.2.1.2 Rho Guanine nucleotide Dissociation Inhibitors (RhoGDIs)……….………………9 1.2.1.3 Posttranslational regulation……………………………………………………….…..9 1.2.2 Role of Rho GTPases in cancer………………………….……………………………..9 1.3 Rho GTPase-Activating Proteins (RhoGAPs)………………………………………….11 1.3.1 RhoGAP regulation by phosphorylation………………………………………………11 1.3.2 RhoGAP membrane localization………………………………………………………11 1.3.3 RhoGAP role in cancer…………………………………………………………………12 1.4 RhoGAP protein subfamilies……………………………………………………………..13 1.4.1 PH-domain containing RhoGAPs……………………………………………………..18 1.4.2 BAR/FCH-domain containing RhoGAPs……………………………………………..24 1.4.3 C1-domain containing RhoGAPs……………………………………………………...26 1.4.4 SEC14-domain containing RhoGAPs…………………………………………………30 v | P a g e 1.4.5 START-domain containing RhoGAPs………………………………………...………31 1.4.6 Multiple LBD-containing RhoGAPs……………………………………………………33 1.4.7 PBR-containing RhoGAPs.....................................................................................36 1.5 CdGAP regulation and function………………………………………………………….47 1.5.1 Domain organization……………………………………………………………………47 1.5.2 CdGAP regulation…………………………………………………….…………………48 1.5.2.1 Protein-protein interactions…………………………………………………………..48 1.5.2.2 Phosphorylation……………………………………………………………………….48 1.5.2.3 Lipid binding…………………………………………………………………………...49 1.5.3 Cellular functions of CdGAP…………………………………………………………...50

  • Mutation-Specific and Common Phosphotyrosine Signatures of KRAS G12D and G13D Alleles Anticipated Graduation August 1St, 2018
    MUTATION-SPECIFIC AND COMMON PHOSPHOTYROSINE SIGNATURES OF KRAS G12D AND G13D ALLELES by Raiha Tahir A dissertation submitted to The Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, MD August 2018 © 2018 Raiha Tahir All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT KRAS is one of the most frequently mutated genes across all cancer subtypes. Two of the most frequent oncogenic KRAS mutations observed in patients result in glycine to aspartic acid substitution at either codon 12 (G12D) or 13 (G13D). Although the biochemical differences between these two predominant mutations are not fully understood, distinct clinical features of the resulting tumors suggest involvement of disparate signaling mechanisms. When we compared the global phosphotyrosine proteomic profiles of isogenic colorectal cancer cell lines bearing either G12D or G13D KRAS mutations, we observed both shared as well as unique signaling events induced by the two KRAS mutations. Remarkably, while the G12D mutation led to an increase in membrane proximal and adherens junction signaling, the G13D mutation led to activation of signaling molecules such as non-receptor tyrosine kinases, MAPK kinases and regulators of metabolic processes. The importance of one of the cell surface molecules, MPZL1, which found to be hyperphosphorylated in G12D cells, was confirmed by cellular assays as its knockdown led to a decrease in proliferation of G12D but not G13D expressing cells. Overall, our study reveals important signaling differences across two common KRAS mutations and highlights the utility of our approach to systematically dissect the subtle differences between related oncogenic mutants and potentially lead to individualized treatments.

  • Defining Functional Interactions During Biogenesis of Epithelial Junctions
    ARTICLE Received 11 Dec 2015 | Accepted 13 Oct 2016 | Published 6 Dec 2016 | Updated 5 Jan 2017 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms13542 OPEN Defining functional interactions during biogenesis of epithelial junctions J.C. Erasmus1,*, S. Bruche1,*,w, L. Pizarro1,2,*, N. Maimari1,3,*, T. Poggioli1,w, C. Tomlinson4,J.Lees5, I. Zalivina1,w, A. Wheeler1,w, A. Alberts6, A. Russo2 & V.M.M. Braga1 In spite of extensive recent progress, a comprehensive understanding of how actin cytoskeleton remodelling supports stable junctions remains to be established. Here we design a platform that integrates actin functions with optimized phenotypic clustering and identify new cytoskeletal proteins, their functional hierarchy and pathways that modulate E-cadherin adhesion. Depletion of EEF1A, an actin bundling protein, increases E-cadherin levels at junctions without a corresponding reinforcement of cell–cell contacts. This unexpected result reflects a more dynamic and mobile junctional actin in EEF1A-depleted cells. A partner for EEF1A in cadherin contact maintenance is the formin DIAPH2, which interacts with EEF1A. In contrast, depletion of either the endocytic regulator TRIP10 or the Rho GTPase activator VAV2 reduces E-cadherin levels at junctions. TRIP10 binds to and requires VAV2 function for its junctional localization. Overall, we present new conceptual insights on junction stabilization, which integrate known and novel pathways with impact for epithelial morphogenesis, homeostasis and diseases. 1 National Heart and Lung Institute, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 2 Computing Department, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 3 Bioengineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 4 Department of Surgery & Cancer, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK.

  • CD93 and Dystroglycan Cooperation in Human Endothelial Cell Adhesion and Migration

Although CD93 displays proangiogenic activity, its molecular function in angiogenesis still needs to be clarified. To get molecular insight into the biological role of CD93 in the endothelium, we performed proteomic analyses to examine changes in the protein profile of endothelial cells after CD93 silencing. Among differentially expressed proteins, we identified dystroglycan, a laminin-binding protein involved in angiogenesis, whose expression is increased in vascular endothelial cells within malignant tumors. Using immunofluorescence, FRET, and proximity ligation analyses, we observed a close interaction between CD93 and β-dystroglycan. Moreover, silencing experiments showed that CD93 and dystroglycan promoted endothelial cell migration and organization into capillary-like structures. CD93 proved to be phosphorylated on tyrosine 628 and 644 following cell adhesion on laminin through dystroglycan. This phosphorylation was shown to be necessary for a proper endothelial migratory phenotype. Moreover, we showed that during cell spreading phosphorylated CD93 recruited the signaling protein Cbl, which in turn was phosphorylated on tyrosine 774.

In humans, there are 20 Rho GTPases and more than 150 regulators that belong to the RhoGEF, RhoGAP, and RhoGDI families. Throughout development, Rho GTPases choregraph a plethora of cellular processes essential for cellular migration, cell–cell junctions, and cell polarity assembly. Rho GTPases are also significant mediators of cancer cell invasion. Nevertheless, to date only a few molecules from these intricate signaling networks have been studied in depth, which has prevented appreciation for the full scope of Rho GTPases’ biological functions. Given the large complexity involved, system level studies are required to fully grasp the extent of their biological roles and regulation. Recently, several groups have tackled this challenge by using proteomic approaches to map the full repertoire of Rho GTPases and Rho regulators protein interactions. These studies have provided in-depth understanding of Rho regulators specificity and have contributed to expand Rho GTPases’ effector portfolio. Additionally, new roles for understudied family members were unraveled using high throughput screening strategies using cell culture models and mouse embryos.

With aquaculture fish species, head size is also important for economic reasons because it head size has a direct impact on fillet yield. However, little is known about the underlying genetic basis of head size. GWAS Catfish is the primary aquaculture species in the United States. In this study, we performed a genome-wide QTL association study using the catfish 250K SNP array with backcross hybrid catfish to map the QTL for head fish size (head length, head width, and head depth). One significantly associated region on linkage group (LG) hybrid 7 was identified for head length. In addition, LGs 7, 9, and 16 contain suggestively associated regions for GenPred head length. For head width, significantly associated regions were found on LG9, and additional shared data suggestively associated regions were identified on LGs 5 and 7. No region was found associated with resources head depth. Head size genetic loci were mapped in catfish to genomic regions with candidate genes genomic involved in bone development.
