Target Details for FKBP1A

Target: FKBP1A (FK506 Binding Protein 1A, 12kDa (FKBP1A))

Alternative Name: FKBP12 (FKBP1A Products)

Background: Transforming growth factor-beta binds to the TGFbeta family of heteromeric serine/threonine transmembrane receptors (type I and type II). Following binding of TGFbeta, the type II receptor (TbetaR-II) phosphorylates the type I receptor (TbetaR-I) which, in turn, conveys the signal. Since TbetaR-I and TbetaR-II can interact without the stimulation of TGFbeta, leading to unwanted activation, a regulatory mechanism exists. In a yeast genetic screen, immunophilin FKBP12 was associated with the type I receptor. Studies including co-immunoprecipiation, deletion, and point mutations confirmed this interaction. FKBP12 inhibits TbetaR-II mediated phosphorylation of TbetaR-I, inhibiting activation. FKBP12 binds via its rapamycin/Leu-Pro binding pocket to the Leu-Pro sequence adjacent to the phosphorylation site of TbetaR-I. This interaction is blocked by the addition of macrolides, rapamycin, and FK506. Furthermore, mutations in the binding sites of FKBP12 and TbetaR-I abrogates the binding and results in activation of the receptor without the addition of TGFbeta. Thus, FKBP12 is a regulatory protein for TbetaR-I and TbetaR-II-mediated signaling.
