Protein kinase N3 (PKN3) is a serine/threonine kinase implicated in tumor progression of multiple cancer types, however, its substrates and effector proteins still remain largely understudied. In the present work we aimed to identify novel PKN3 substrates in a phosphoproteomic screen using analog sensitive PKN3. Among the identified putative substrates we selected ARHGAP18, a protein from RhoGAP family, for validation of the screen and further study. We confirmed that PKN3 can phosphorylate ARHGAP18 in vitro and we also characterized the interaction of the two proteins, which is mediated via the N-terminal part of ARHGAP18. We present strong evidence that PKN3-ARHGAP18 interaction is increased upon ARHGAP18 phosphorylation and that the phosphorylation of ARHGAP18 by PKN3 enhances its GAP domain activity and contributes to negative regulation of active RhoA. Taken together, we identified new set of potential PKN3 substrates and revealed a new negative feedback regulatory mechanism of Rho signaling mediated by PKN3-induced ARHGAP18 activation.

The adenylate cyclase toxin (CyaA) of the whooping cough agent Bordetella pertussis subverts immune functions of host myeloid cells expressing the αMβ2 integrin (CD11b/CD18, CR3 or Mac-1). CyaA delivers into cytosol of cells an extremely catalytically active adenylyl cyclase enzyme, which disrupts the innate and adaptive immune functions of phagocytes through unregulated production of the key signaling molecule cAMP. We have used phosphoproteomics to analyze cAMP signaling of CyaA in murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. CyaA action resulted in alterations of phosphorylation state of a number of proteins that regulate actin cytoskeleton homeostasis, including Mena, Talin-1 and VASP. CyaA action repressed mTOR signaling through activation of mTORC1 inhibitors TSC2 and PRAS40 and altered phosphorylation of multiple chromatin remodelers, including the class II histone deacetylase HDAC5. CyaA toxin action further elicited inhibitory phosphorylation of SIK family kinases involved in modulation of immune response and provoked dephosphorylation of the transcriptional coactivator CRTC3, indicating that CyaA-promoted nuclear translocation of CRTC3 may account for CyaA-induced IL-10 production. These findings document the complexity of subversive physiological manipulation of myeloid phagocytes by the CyaA toxin, serving in immune evasion of the pertussis agent.
