The regulation of the mRNA decay activator Tristetraprolin (TTP) by the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway during the mammalian inflammatory response represents a paradigm for the control of mRNA turnover by signaling. TTP activity is regulated through multiple phosphorylation sites, including an evolutionary conserved serine in its CNOT1 Interacting Motif (CIM) whose phosphorylation disrupts an interaction with CNOT1 of the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex. Here we present evidence that the TTP CIM recruits the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex and activates mRNA degradation cooperatively with the conserved tryptophan residues of TTP, previously identified to interact with CNOT9. Surprisingly, the TTP CIM remains unphosphorylated and capable of promoting association with the CCR4-NOT complex and mRNA decay upon activation of p38-MAPK-activated kinase MK2, a well-established regulator of TTP activity. The CIM is instead targeted by other kinases including PKCα. These observations suggest that signaling pathways regulate TTP activity in a cooperative manner and that the p38 MAPK-MK2 kinase pathway relies on the activation of additional kinase pathway(s) to fully control TTP function.
