Abstract Text The Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib irreversibly binds BTK at Cys481, inhibiting its kinase activity and thus blocking transduction of B cell receptor (BCR) signaling. Although ibrutinib is durably effective in patients with B cell malignancies, many patients still develop ibrutinib-resistant disease. Resistance can arise because of mutations at the ibrutinib-binding site in BTK. Here, we characterized the mechanism by which two BTK mutations, C481F and C481Y, may lead to ibrutinib resistance. Both mutants lacked detectable kinase activity in in vitro kinase assays. Structural modeling suggested that bulky Phe and Tyr side chains at position 481 sterically hinder access to the ATP-binding pocket in BTK, contributing to loss of kinase activity. Nonetheless, BCR signaling still propagated through BTK C481F and C481Y mutants to downstream effectors, the phospholipase PLCγ2 and the transcription factor NF-κB. This maintenance of BCR signaling was partially achieved through the physical recruitment and kinase-independent activation of hematopoietic cell kinase (HCK). Upon BCR activation, BTK C481F or C481Y was phosphorylated by Src family kinases at Tyr551, which then bound to the SH2 domain of HCK. Modeling suggested that this binding disrupted an intramolecular autoinhibitory interaction in HCK. Activated HCK subsequently phosphorylated PLCγ2, which propagated BCR signaling and promoted clonogenic cell proliferation. This kinase-independent mechanism could inform therapeutic approaches to CLL bearing either the C481F or C481Y BTK mutants.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
