The homophilic receptor PTPRK is stabilized by cell-cell contact.

(A) Schematic of full length PTPRK. The extracellular MAM, Ig and fibronectin domains mediate homophilic interactions. The intracellular domain comprises a juxtamembrane domain and two PTP domains; one active (D1) and one inactive (D2). (B) Structured illumination microscopy images of MCF10As immunostained for PTPRK (F4 clone; magenta) and E-Cadherin (green). Graphs indicate fluorescence intensity through the Z-axis in indicated boxed regions. Scale bars = 10 µm. (C) Fluorescence microscopy images from co-cultures of wildtype and nuclear mApple-expressing PTPRK knockout MCF10As that were immunostained for PTPRK (magenta) and E-Cadherin (green). Nuclei were stained with Hoechst (blue). mApple positive PTPRK KO cells are indicated by orange asterisks. Cell junctions where PTPRK is absent are highlighted by white arrows. Scale bars = 20 µm. (D) MCF10As were plated at indicated densities and analyzed by immunoblot after 3 days in culture. Arrows indicate full length (top) and furin-cleaved PTPRK (bottom).

Generation and validation of PTPRK antibodies and interaction screen.

(A) mRNA expression of R2B PTPs in Human tissues. Raw data obtained from Genotype-tissue expression portal (GTExportal.org; GTEx Consortium et al., 2015). (B) 15 rabbit monoclonal antibodies were screened for their ability to specifically detect PTPRK by immunoblot. Immunoblot analysis of lysates generated from HEK293 cells transiently transfected with HA-PTPRK or an siRNA pool targeting PTPRK mRNA. Left: The indicated Rabbit monoclonal antibodies detected bands at 215 kDa (full length PTPRK) and 95 kDa (Furin-cleaved PTPRK), which are depleted by siRNA and increased with PTPRK overexpression. This suggests the antibodies recognize epitopes C-terminal to the Furin-cleavage site. Right panel: immunoblot probed with a commercial mouse monoclonal antibody raised against a PTPRK extracellular fragment (Sc-374315). No bands corresponding to predicted sizes (Full length 215 kDa; Furin-cleaved extracellular fragment:~120 kDa.) or modulated by siRNA depletion or overexpression were observed. (C) PTPRK antibody recognition based on (B). (D) 15 monoclonal antibodies were screened for their ability to specifically detect PTPRK by immunofluorescence. Immunostaining of MCF10As transfected with a non-targeting or PTPRK siRNA using PTPRK rabbit monoclonal antibody clone 1 .F4 (Magenta). F-actin (green) and nuclei (blue) were stained with phalloidin and Hoechst, respectively. Scale bars = 50 µm. (E) MCF10As were transfected with plasmids for the expression of Cas9, eGFP and single guide RNAs targeting PTPRK exons 1 and 2. eGFP-positive cells were cloned and expanded. Lysates from three clones grown individually or pooled were analyzed by immunoblot. PTPRK was detected using a mix of 2 .G6, 2 .H4 and 4 .H5 monoclonal antibodies. (F) Quantitative PCR analysis of confluent MCF10A cDNA using the indicated probes. Ct values relative to the housekeeping gene RPL19 were normalized using 2-ΔCt. The means of technical duplicates are shown. (G) Summary of secreted protein microarray with two purified protein libraries representing more than 1500 genes (≈50% single transmembrane receptors and partial secreted factor coverage) against the recombinant Fc-tagged PTPRK extracellular domain. Each intersection plot represents two independent microarray screens and dots represent average scores for each protein in the library. The lower left square represents all non-hit proteins with a cut-off of 10. Data analysis for hit calling is described in the Materials and methods section.
