- The docking protein p130Cas has, together with FAK, been found as a target of the Yersinia virulence effector YopH. YopH is a protein tyrosine phosphatase that is delivered into host cells via the bacterial type III secretion machinery, and the outcome of its activity is inhibition of host cell phagocytosis. In the present study using p130Cas-/- cells, and p130Cas-/- cells expressing variants of GFPp130Cas, we show that this docking protein, via its substrate domain, is responsible for subcellular targeting of YopH in eukaryotic cells. Since YopH inhibits phagocytosis, p130Cas was expected to be critical for signalling mediating bacterial internalization. However, p130Cas-/- cells did not exhibit reduced capacity to internalize Yersinia. On the other hand, when a dominant negative variant of p130Cas was expressed in these cells, the phagocytic capacity was severely impaired. Moreover, the p130Cas-/- cells displayed a marked reduced sensitivity towards YopH-mediated detachment compared to wild-type cells. Transfecting these cells with full-length p130Cas rendered cells hypersensitive to both mechanical and Yersinia-mediated detachment. This hypersensitivity was not seen upon transfection with the dominant negative substrate domain-deleted variant of p130Cas. This implicates p130Cas as a prominent regulator of cell adhesion, where its substrate-binding domain has a significant function.The docking protein p130Cas has, together with FAK, been found as a target of the Yersinia virulence effector YopH.

- The immune cell specific protein Fyn-T binding protein (Fyb) has been identified as a target of the Yersinia antiphagocytic effector Yersinia outer protein H (YopH), but its role in macrophages is unknown. By using Fyb domains as bait to screen a mouse lymphoma cDNA library, we identified a novel interaction partner, mammalian actin binding protein 1 (mAbp1). We show that mAbp1 binds the Fyb N-terminal via its C-terminally located src homology 3 domain. The interaction between Fyb and mAbp1 is detected in macrophage lysates and the proteins co-localize with F-actin in the leading edge. Hence, mAbp1 is likely to constitute a downstream effector of Fyb involved in F-actin dynamics.
