The mechanism of cross talk between the Wnt signaling and cyclic AMP (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase A [PKA]) pathways was studied. Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1), isoproterenol, and dibutyryl cAMP (Bt2cAMP), all of which activate PKA, increased the cytoplasmic and nuclear ß-catenin protein level, and these actions were suppressed by a PKA inhibitor and RNA interference for PKA. PGE1 and Bt2cAMP also increased T-cell factor (Tcf)-dependent transcription through ß-catenin. Bt2cAMP suppressed degradation of ß-catenin at the protein level. Although PKA did not affect the formation of a complex between glycogen synthase kinase 3ß (GSK-3ß), ß-catenin, and Axin, phosphorylation of ß-catenin by PKA inhibited ubiquitination of ß-catenin in intact cells and in vitro. Ser675 was found to be a site for phosphorylation by PKA, and substitution of this serine residue with alanine in ß-catenin attenuated inhibition of the ubiquitination of ß-catenin by PKA, PKA-induced stabilization of ß-catenin, and PKA-dependent activation of Tcf. These results indicate that PKA inhibits the ubiquitination of ß-catenin by phosphorylating ß-catenin, thereby causing ß-catenin to accumulate and the Wnt signaling pathway to be activated.
