Chek1

Protein FULL name:

serine/threonine-protein kinase Chk1 [Mus musculus].


Chek1 (Mus musculus) is product of expression of Chek1 gene.






FUNCTION: Required for checkpoint mediated cell cycle arrest in response to DNA damage or the presence of unreplicated DNA. May also negatively regulate cell cycle progression during unperturbed cell cycles. Recognizes the substrate consensus sequence [R-X-X- S/T]. Binds to and phosphorylates CDC25A, CDC25B and CDC25C. Phosphorylation of CDC25A at 'Ser-171' and 'Thr-497' and phosphorylation of CDC25C creates binding sites for 14-3-3 proteins which inhibit CDC25A and CDC25C. Phosphorylation of CDC25A at 'Ser-74', 'Ser-122', 'Ser-171', 'Ser-271' and 'Ser-284' promotes proteolysis of CDC25A. Inhibition of CDC25 activity leads to increased inhibitory tyrosine phosphorylation of CDK-cyclin complexes and blocks cell cycle progression. Binds to and phosphorylates RAD51 at 'Thr-309', which may enhance the association of RAD51 with chromatin and promote DNA repair by homologous recombination. Binds to and phosphorylates TLK1 at 'Ser-743', which prevents the TLK1-dependent phosphorylation of the chromatin assembly factor ASF1A. This may affect chromatin assembly during S phase or DNA repair. May also phosphorylate multiple sites within the C-terminus of TP53, which promotes activation of TP53 by acetylation and enhances suppression of cellular proliferation (By similarity). Essential for early embryogenesis.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.

SUBUNIT: Interacts with BRCA1, CLSPN, FBXO6, PPM1D, RAD51, TIMELESS, XPO1/CRM1 and YWHAZ/14-3-3 zeta (By similarity).

INTERACTION: O14757:CHEK1 (xeno); NbExp=1; IntAct=EBI-2553137, EBI-974488;

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (By similarity). Cytoplasm (By similarity). Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome (By similarity). Note=Nuclear export is mediated at least in part by XPO1/CRM1. Also localizes to the centrosome specifically during interphase, where it may protect centrosomal CDC2 kinase from inappropriate activation by cytoplasmic CDC25B (By similarity).

TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Found in all adult tissues tested. Elevated expression in testis, lung and spleen. 15.5 day old embryos show ubiquitous expression with strong expression in brain, liver, kidney, pancreas, intestine, thymus and lung.

DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: In the testis, present in cells undergoing meiosis I. Not detected in peripheral cells in seminiferous tubules that are undergoing pre-meiotic DNA synthesis or in late condensing or mature sperm.

DOMAIN: The autoinhibitory region (AIR) inhibits the activity of the kinase domain (By similarity).

PTM: Phosphorylated by ATR in response to ultraviolet irradiation and inhibition of DNA replication. May also be phosphorylated by ATM in response to ionizing irradiation. ATM and ATR may phosphorylate both Ser-317 and Ser-345 and this results in enhanced kinase activity. Phosphorylation at Ser-345 induces a change in the conformation of the protein, activates the kinase activity and is a prerequisite for interaction with FBXO6 and subsequent ubiquitination at Lys-436. Phosphorylation at Ser-345 also increases binding to 14-3-3 proteins and promotes nuclear retention. Conversely, dephosphorylation at Ser-345 by PPM1D may contribute to exit from checkpoint mediated cell cycle arrest. Phosphorylated at Ser-280 by AKT1/PKB, which may promote mono and/or diubiquitination. May also be phosphorylated at undefined residues during mitotic arrest, which results in decreased activity.

PTM: The activated form (phosphorylated on Ser-345) is polyubiquitinated at Lys-436 by some SCF-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex containing FBXO6 promoting its degradation. Ubiquitination of activated form is required to insure that activated CHK1 does not accumulate as cells progress through S phase, or when replication forks encounter transient impediments during normal DNA replication (By similarity). Ubiquitinated. Mono or diubiquitination promotes nuclear exclusion.

DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Mice die of apoptosis at the blastocyst stage.

MISCELLANEOUS: Haploinsufficient for the suppression of genomic instability and tumor progression.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family. NIM1 subfamily.

SIMILARITY: Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
