Abstract
We demonstrate here that growth hormone (GH) stimulates the activation of Rap1 and Rap2 in NIH-3T3 cells. Full activation of Rap1 and Rap2 by GH necessitated the combined activity of both JAK2 and c-Src kinases, although c-Src was predominantly required. GH-stimulated Rap1 and Rap2 activity was also demonstrated to be CrkII-C3G-dependent. GH stimulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of C3G, which again required the combined activity of JAK2 and c-Src. C3G tyrosine residue 504 was required for GH-stimulated Rap activation. Activated Rap1 inhibited GH-stimulated activation of RalA and subsequent GH-stimulated p44/42 MAP kinase activity and Elk-1-mediated transcription. In addition, we demonstrated that C3G-Rap1 mediated CrkII enhancement of GH-stimulated JNK/SAPK activity. We have therefore identified a linear JAK2-independent pathway switching GH-stimulated p44/42 MAP kinase and JNK/SAPK activities.
