Protein FULL name: Genome integrity checkpoint protein and PI kinase superfamily member; signal transducer required for cell cycle arrest and transcriptional responses prompted by damaged or unreplicated DNA; monitors and participates in meiotic recombination
Mec1p (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is product of expression of
MEC1
gene.
Mec1p is involved in:
DDS in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Keywords:
FUNCTION: Serine/threonine protein kinase which activates
checkpoint signaling upon genotoxic stresses such as ionizing
radiation (IR), ultraviolet light (UV), or DNA replication
stalling, thereby acting as a DNA damage sensor. Recognizes the
substrate consensus sequence [ST]-Q. Recruited in complex with
protein LCD1 by the single-strand-binding protein complex RPA to
DNA lesions in order to initiate the DNA repair by homologous
recombination, after the MRX-complex and TEL1 are displaced.
Phosphorylates LCD1 and RPA2, a subunit of RPA, involved in DNA
replication, repair and recombination. Phosphorylates RAD9, CHK1
and RAD53, which leads to the activation of the CHK1 and RAD53
kinases involved in DNA damage repair cascade. Phosphorylates
histone H2A to form H2AS128ph (gamma-H2A) at sites of DNA damage,
also involved in the regulation of DNA damage response mechanism.
Phosphorylates also SLX4 and RTT107 which are proteins involved in
genome stability. Required for cell growth and meiotic
recombination.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with LCD1, which is required for localization
MEC1 to the RPA complex. Interacts directly with the RPA subunits
RFA1 and RFA2.
INTERACTION:
Q04377:LCD1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-6668, EBI-35652;
P34217:PIN4; NbExp=1; IntAct=EBI-6668, EBI-21256;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Note=Localizes to nuclear DNA
repair foci in response to DNA double strand breaks. The
recruitment to DNA lesion sites requires its interaction with LCD1
and the presence of the RPA complex on DNA.
DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Induced during meiosis.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the PI3/PI4-kinase family. ATM subfamily.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 FAT domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 FATC domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 5 HEAT repeats.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 PI3K/PI4K domain.
