Binding of GSK3beta to the APC-beta -Catenin Complex and Regulation of Complex Assembly

Bonnee Rubinfeld, Iris Albert, Emilio Porfiri, Carol Fiol, Susan Munemitsu, Paul Polakis *

The adenomatous polyposis coli gene (APC) is mutated in most colon cancers. The APC protein binds to the cellular adhesion molecule beta -catenin, which is a mammalian homolog of ARMADILLO, a component of the WINGLESS signaling pathway in Drosophila development. Here it is shown that when beta -catenin is present in excess, APC binds to another component of the WINGLESS pathway, glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK3beta ), a mammalian homolog of Drosophila ZESTE WHITE 3. APC was a good substrate for GSK3beta in vitro, and the phosphorylation sites were mapped to the central region of APC. Binding of beta -catenin to this region was dependent on phosphorylation by GSK3beta .
