The p12I protein, encoded by the pX open reading frame
I of the human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), is a hydrophobic protein that localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi. Although p12I contains 4 minimal proline-rich, src homology
3-binding motifs (PXXP), a characteristic commonly found in proteins
involved in signaling pathways, it has not been known whether
p12I has a role in modulating intracellular signaling
pathways. This study demonstrated that p12I binds to the
cytoplasmic domain of the interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) chain that
is involved in the recruitment of the Jak1 and Jak3 kinases. As a
result of this interaction, p12I increases signal
transducers and activators of transcription 5 (STAT5) DNA binding and
transcriptional activity and this effect depends on the presence of
both IL-2R and c chains and Jak3. Transduction of
primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with a human
immunodeficiency virus type 1-based retroviral vector expressing
p12I also resulted in increased STAT5 phosphorylation and
DNA binding. However, p12I could increase proliferation of
human PBMCs only after stimulation of T-cell receptors by treatment of
cells with low concentrations of CD3 and CD28 antibodies. In
addition, the proliferative advantage of p12I-transduced
PBMCs was evident mainly at low concentrations of IL-2. Together, these
data indicate that p12I may confer a proliferative
advantage on HTLV-1-infected cells in the presence of suboptimal
antigen stimulation and that this event may account for the clonal
proliferation of infected T cells in vivo.
