| Abstract | Receptors for PDGF play an important role in cell proliferation and migration and have been implicated in certain cancers. The 44-amino acid E5 protein of bovine papillomavirus binds to and activates the PDGFß receptor (PDGFßR), resulting in oncogenic transformation of cultured fibroblasts. Previously, we isolated an artificial 36-amino acid transmembrane protein, pTM36-4, which transforms cells because of its ability to activate the PDGFßR despite limited sequence similarity to E5. Here, we demonstrated complex formation between the PDGFßR and three pTM36-4 mutants: T21E, T21Q, and T21N. T21Q retained wild type transforming activity and activated the PDGFßR in a ligand-independent manner as a consequence of binding to the transmembrane domain of the PDGFßR, but T21E and T21N were severely defective. In fact, T21N substantially inhibited E5-induced PDGFßR activation and transformation in both mouse and human fibroblasts. T21N did not prevent E5 from binding to the receptor, and genetic evidence suggested that T21N and E5 bind to nonidentical sites in the transmembrane domain of the receptor. T21N also inhibited transformation and PDGFßR activation induced by v-Sis, a viral homologue of PDGF-BB, as well as PDGF-induced mitogenesis and signaling by preventing phosphorylation of the PDGFßR at particular tyrosine residues. These results demonstrated that T21N acts as a novel inhibitor of the PDGFßR and validated a new strategy for designing highly specific short transmembrane protein inhibitors of growth factor receptors and possibly other transmembrane proteins. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
