MGI Phenotype FUNCTION: This gene encodes a member of the protein tyrosine kinase family. The encoded protein is essential for development of T lymphocytes and thymocytes, and functions in the initial step of T lymphocyte receptor-mediated signal transduction. A mutation in this gene causes chronic autoimmune arthritis, similar to rheumatoid arthritis in humans. Mice lacking this gene are deficient in alpha-beta T lymphocytes in the thymus. In humans, mutations in this gene cause selective T-cell defect, a severe combined immunodeficiency disease characterized by a selective absence of CD8-positive T lymphocytes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
PHENOTYPE: Mutant mice show T cell defects. Null mutants lack alpha-beta T cells in the thymus and have fewer T cells in dendritic and intestinal epithelium. Spontaneous and knock-in missense mutations affect T cell receptor signaling, one of the former resulting in severe chronic arthritis. [provided by MGI curators]

Phenotypic Description

ENU-mutagenized G3 mice were sublethally irradiated and injected intravenously with wild type bone marrow cells (CD45.1+) to create mixed bone marrow chimeras.  The contribution of G3 (CD45.2+) and wild type cells to reconstitution of the hematopoietic compartment was assessed by flow cytometry.  CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from the index trebia mice (siblings J1557 and J1560) were outcompeted by wild type T cells, whereas repopulation of other cell types occurred normally (see figure).  Other non-irradiated mice from the same pedigree had reduced frequencies of T cells, which were CD44hi.

Nature of Mutation

The trebia mutation was mapped by bulk segregation analysis of progeny from intercrosses of (C57BL/10J x C57BL/6J-trebia)F1 mice (n=10 with mutant phenotype, 38 with normal phenotype).  Peak linkage was observed at position 43063842 bp on chromosome 1 (synthetic LOD=6.4).  The candidate gene Zap70 was within the critical region and was directly sequenced, revealing an A to T transversion at position 1566 of the Zap70 mRNA.  The mutation occurs in the tenth of thirteen exons.

Figure 1. Structure of ZAP-70. Mouse Zap-70 is a 618 amino acid protein tyrosine kinasen (PTK) that consists of two N-terminal Src-homology 2 (SH2) domains and a C-terminal kinase domain. The SH2 domains are connected by a linker known as interdomain A (IDA), while the region between the second SH2 and catalytic domains is known as interdomain B (IDB). The aspartic acid (D) of the residue 459 is the proton acceptor during the catalytic cycle. Several tyrosine (Y) residues located within interdomain B are phosphorylated following TCR stimulation (291, 314, and 318). Phosphorylation of Tyr 492 is required for ZAP-70 activation, while Tyr 491 phosphorylation negatively regulates ZAP-70 function. The trebia mutation causes a tyrosine to phenylalanine substitution at amino acid 492. The 3D structure is human ZAP70. The trebia mutation is located within the disordered section of the protein in the kinase domain. UCSF Chimera structure based on PDB 2OZO. This image is interactive. Other mutations found in ZAP-70 are noted in red. Click on the mutations for more specific information. Click on the 3D structure to view it rotate.

The trebia mutation affects tyrosine 492, one of two tyrosines (Y491 and Y492) in the activation loop of the mouse Zap70 kinase domain.  Phosphorylation of Y492 is required for Zap70 activation (1;2).

Please see the record for murdock for more information about Zap70.
