The CD2 co-receptor expressed on the surface of T lymphocytes is able to stimulate T cell activation, proliferation and cytokine production in the absence of direct engagement of the antigen-specific TCR. Engagement of human CD2 by mitogenic pairs of anti-CD2 mAb induces tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of intracellular proteins including a 120 kDa phosphoprotein that we identify as the proto-oncogene c-Cbl. Rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated following stimulation of a number of cell surface receptors, c-Cbl is an adaptor protein that has been shown to associate with a complex of intracellular signaling molecules, and to mediate both positive and negative regulatory effects. Here we show that, like TCR-CD3 stimulation, stimulation of CD2 enhanced the association of c-Cbl with both Crk(L) and the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase. Overexpression of wild-type c-Cbl protein inhibited both CD2and CD3-induced NF-AT transcriptional activity, suggesting that CD2 signaling is also negatively regulated by c-Cbl. The inhibitory effect of c-Cbl depended upon its N-terminal phosphotyrosine-binding domain, the domain that has been shown to be required for inhibition of the Syk/ZAP-70 family kinases. In Syk(-) Jurkat T cells stably expressing wild-type ZAP-70, CD2 stimulation induced only a minimal increase in ZAP-70 tyrosine phosphorylation. Nevertheless, ZAP-70 kinase was required for CD2-mediated NF-AT transcriptional activity. Thus, CD2-mediated NF-AT transcriptional activity appears to depend upon ZAP-70/Syk kinases and to be negatively regulated by c-Cbl.
