Abstract
SH2 domain containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (SHIP2) dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P 3) into phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P 2). SHIP2 knock-out mice demonstrated that SHIP2 acts as a negative regulator of insulin cascade in vivo. Our two-hybrid study showed that SHIP2 interacts with c-Cbl associated protein (CAP) and c-Cbl, implicated in the insulin signaling. As some proteins implicated in insulin signaling, like insulin receptor, CAP, c-Cbl or TC10, were reported to localize in lipid rafts, we addressed the same question for SHIP2. SHIP2 was detected in the non-raft fraction in CHO-IR, C2C12 myotubes and 3T3-L1 adipocytes except when it is overexpressed in CHO-IR, where we detected SHIP2 in the raft fraction.
