CERKL
-
the point mutant enzyme CERKL does not phosphorylate ceramide or diacylglycerol and is localized in the nucleus
DELTA1-123
production by site-directed mutagenesis, localization in cytosol
DELTA124-537
production by site-directed mutagenesis, resulted in almost complete accumulation in the nucleus
DELTA219-496
production by site-directed mutagenesis, localization in cytosol and nucleus
DELTA340-537
production by site-directed mutagenesis, significant accumulation into the nucleus, existence of nuclear export signals in the C-terminal part of enzyme, traditional nuclear export signals 511-IEVRVHCQLVRL-522 in the CC3 domain and a class 2 nuclear export signals 347-CRAGCFVC-354 between the CC1 and the CC2 domains
DELTA454-537
production by site-directed mutagenesis, localization in cytosol and nucleus
DELTA514-537

-
site-directed mutagenesis, reduced activity compared to the wild-type enzyme
S340A
by site directed mutagenesis, using of Triton X-100 as lysis buffer results in 15% activity decrease in the mutant protein compared with the wild type enzyme, when octylglucoside is used instead of Triton X-100 for cell lysis, activity is reduced in the S340A mutant protein which reaches only 15% of wild type activity
S340D
by site directed mutagenesis, intermediate recovery of 16% is observed for the mutant protein
S427A
by site directed mutagenesis, activity in the S427A mutant protein amounts to only 30% of that of wild type enzyme
S427D
by site directed mutagenesis, mutant protein displays 50% of wild type activity

by site-directed mutagenesis, mutation severely impairs localization at the Golgi complex resulting in cytosolic accumulation instead
generation of an Arabidopsis thaliana cell-death mutant, accelerated cell death5 (acd5), which accumulates ceramides and exhibits spontaneous cell death late in development. NaCl enhances disease resistance and suppresses cell death in ceramide kinase mutants. The effect of NaCl is partly dependent on the antagonistic interaction between endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) and salicylic acid (SA). The intact ABA pathway may not be required for this effect. The response of the acd5 mutant to abiotic stress shows that the mutants do not have the cell-death phenotype. 300 mM NaCl suppresses the cell-death phenotype of the acd5 mutant without inhibiting plant growth. NaCl treatment inhibits sphingolipid accumulation in the acd5 mutant and alters the endogenous levels of SA and ABA

knockdown of CERK in MCF-7 cells by specific siRNA
additional information
knockdown of CerK is performed with shRNA to silence CerK (shCerK, target sequence GTT (TATCGAGTCAAGAAAT)). Establishment of a stable CerK-knockdown cell line (shCerK) and a HA-tagged CerK expressing cell line using a retroviral vector. Serum withdrawal causes ubiquitination of HA-tagged CerK protein and downregulates both HA-tagged CerK protein and ceramide 1-phosphate formation within 6 h, and these downregulations are abolished by co-treatments with NGF or proteasome inhibitors such as MG132 and clasto-lactacystin. Treatment with the proteasome inhibitors increases HA-tagged CerK in puncture structures, possibly endosomes and/or vesicles, in cells. Treatment with the lysosome inhibitors reduces serum withdrawal-induced downregulation of HA-tagged CerK protein but not ceramide 1-phosphate formation. When knockdown or overexpression of CerK is performed, Ca2+-induced release of [3H] noradrenaline is reduced or enhanced, respectively, but neurite extension is not modified. There is a positive correlation between noradrenaline release and formation of ceramide 1-phosphate and/or HA-tagged CerK levels in NGF- and clasto-lactacystin-treated cells
