Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
D306A site-directed mutagenesis, inactive mutant of ChoKalpha1 Homo sapiens
additional information comparison of the c-Src binding potential of ChoK as the full-length (FL) enzyme or with the first 49 (DELTA49) or 79 (DELTA79) residues truncated. The FL and DELTA49 variants include the poly-proline region, whereas the DELTA79 variant does not. All constructs extend up to the C-terminal residue, Val457, overview. The c-Src-ChoKalpha1 interaction occurs with the enzymatically dead D306A variant of ChoKalphaDELTA49, indicating that the association is independent of ChoKalpha1 activity. Both the P61A/P62A and the DELTA62 are difficult to purify and less soluble than their FL, DELTA49, or DELTA79 counterparts, as well as the P59A/P60A or P72A/P73A constructs Homo sapiens

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution choline kinase exists as two isoforms, alpha (ChoKalpha1 and 2) and beta. The alpha and beta isoforms are structurally similar and have sequence identity of 59%. The alpha isoform has a longer N-terminal sequence that shares no identity with the beta isoform, it also has a splice variant where residues 155-172 are missing (denoted ChoKalpha2), the unspliced variant, ChoKalpha1, has 457 residues Homo sapiens
malfunction increased cellular pCho levels lead to increased cellular proliferation. Other downstream products of the Kennedy pathway include phosphatidylcholine, which stimulates growth factor-induced DNA synthesis, and glycerophosphocholine, which is incorporated into cell membranes and is necessary for cell proliferation Homo sapiens
additional information ChoKALpha1DELTA49 binding to c-Src-SH3 requires an intact polyproline sequence preceding PL repeats motif but not ChoK kinase activity, two-state induced-fit model, binding analysis with ligand VSL12 (PDB ID 1QWF), overview Homo sapiens
physiological function choline kinase is linked to cancer malignancy and poor patient prognosis. It is the first enzyme in the Kennedy pathway, ultimately leading to the production of phosphatidylcholine, a key component of biological membranes. Choline kinase exists as two isoforms, alpha (ChoKalpha1 and 2) and beta. Choline kinase alpha also has a non-catalytic protein-binding role and a function in protein-protein interactions. Choline kinase alpha interacts with the SH3 domain of c-Src. This interaction is specific and is mediated by the poly-proline region found N-terminal to the catalytic domain of choline kinase, importance of ChoKalpha1 residues 49-79 for the interaction with the SH3 domain of c-Src. ChoKalpha1 may serve both scaffolding and signaling functions in the context of this oncogenic pathway. The interaction between ChoKalpha1 and the c-Src SH3 domain does not impact the choline kinase enzymatic activity, kinetic analysis, overview. Protein-protein interaction has no influence on enzymatic activity per se Homo sapiens
