Human enhancer of filamentation 1 (HEF1), a multifunctional docking protein of the Cas family, participates in integrin and growth factor signaling pathways that regulate global cellular processes including growth, motility and apoptosis. HEF1 consists of two isoforms, p105 and p115, the larger molecular weight form resulting from Ser/Thr phosphorylation of p105HEF1. The molecular mechanisms that regulate the interconversion of the two HEF1 species as well as the function of HEF1 Ser/Thr phosphorylation are unknown. Our study reveals that cell adhesion and detachment regulate the interconversion of the two HEF1 isoforms. Experiments using various inhibitors of cytoskeletal organization indicated that disruption of actin microfilaments; but not intermediate filaments or microtubules resulted in a complete conversion of p115HEF1 to p105HEF1. The conversion of p115HEF1 to p105HEF1 was prevented by inhibition of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), suggesting that cytoskeletal regulation of PP2A activity controlled the dephosphorylation of p115HEF1. Degradation of endogenous HEF1 was dependent on proteasomes with the p115 species of HEF1 being preferentially targeted for turnover. Dephosphorylation of HEF1 by suspending cells or disrupting actin filaments protected HEF1 from degradation. These results suggest that the adhesion-dependent actin organization regulates proteasomal turnover of HEF1 through the activity of PP2A.
