Complex formation of JAK2 with PP2A, P13K, and Yes in response to the hematopoietic cytokine interleukin-11.

Interleukin-11 is a stromal derived cytokine important in hematopoiesis. IL-11 intracellular signaling travels through cytoplasmic kinases of the Janus family. How JAKs accomplish the multiple functions of IL-11 has not been determined and until recently only a few associated downstream proteins have been identified. We present evidence here for the ...
IL-11 induced association of PP2A, P13K, and Yes to JAK2. Reciprocal immunoprecipitations support the mutual involvement of these signaling components in IL-11 mediated signal transduction. This novel finding of JAK2/PP2A binding and release may have relevance to many serine/threonine regulated mechanisms such as P13K, Stat, and MAPK activation. These associations support a model of JAK2 as a protein kinase docking protein of IL-11 signal transduction that may be applicable to other gp130 and JAK signal transduction systems.
