The fibronectin binding integrins {alpha}5ß1 and {alpha}4ß1 generate signals pivotal for cell migration through distinct yet undefined mechanisms. For {alpha}5ß1, ß1-mediated activation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) promotes c-Src recruitment to FAK and the formation of a FAK-Src signaling complex. Herein, we show that FAK expression is essential for {alpha}5ß1-stimulated cell motility and that exogenous expression of human {alpha}4 in FAK-null fibroblasts forms a functional {alpha}4ß1 receptor that promotes robust cell motility equal to the {alpha}5ß1 stimulation of wild-type and FAK-reconstituted fibroblasts. {alpha}4ß1-stimulated FAK-null cell spreading and motility were dependent on the integrity of the {alpha}4 cytoplasmic domain, independent of direct paxillin binding to {alpha}4, and were not affected by PRNK expression, a dominant-negative inhibitor of Pyk2. {alpha}4 cytoplasmic domain-initiated signaling led to a ~4-fold activation of c-Src which did not require paxillin binding to {alpha}4. Notably, {alpha}4-stimulated cell motility was inhibited by catalytically inactive receptor protein-tyrosine phosphatase {alpha} overexpression and blocked by the p50Csk phosphorylation of c-Src at Tyr-529. {alpha}4ß1-stimulated cell motility of triple-null Src–/–, c-Yes–/–, and Fyn–/– fibroblasts was dependent on c-Src reexpression that resulted in p130Cas tyrosine phosphorylation and Rac GTPase loading. As p130Cas phosphorylation and Rac activation are common downstream targets for {alpha}5ß1-stimulated FAK activation, our results support the existence of a novel {alpha}4 cytoplasmic domain connection leading to c-Src activation which functions as a FAK-independent linkage to a common motility-promoting signaling pathway.
