Two molecules involved in signal transduction via the T cell antigen receptor, namely the protein-tyrosine kinase ZAP-70 and the proto-oncoprotein Vav, were found to be constitutively associated with tubulin in Jurkat T cells. Both were able to bind to tubulin independently of one another, as determined by transient transfection into COS-7 cells. The ZAP-70 associated with tubulin was preferentially tyrosine-phosphorylated after T cell antigen receptor stimulation of Jurkat T cells, suggesting that this interaction was functionally significant. Vav was also found to co-immunoprecipitate with ZAP-70 from cell extracts depleted of tubulin. This raised the possibility that Vav might be a substrate for ZAP-70 protein-tyrosine kinase activity. However, tyrosine phosphorylation of Vav preceded that of ZAP-70, indicating that Vav was unlikely to be a downstream target of ZAP-70. The association of ZAP-70 and Vav with tubulin implies that the microtubules may be involved in the signaling function of these two molecules, perhaps by targeting them to their appropriate intracellular location.
