Activity summary

The protein CERKL also called Ceramide Kinase-Like is significant in cellular functions. CERKL has a molecular weight of approximately 70 kDa and expresses mainly in retinal tissue and other neuronal tissues. It is a member of the ceramide kinase family though it lacks measurable kinase activity. CERKL participates in cellular signaling and survival pathways suggesting an important role in maintaining neuronal health.

Biological function summary

CERKL plays a part in cellular protection against oxidative stress and apoptosis. It interacts with other proteins to form complexes that likely enhance cell survival under stressful conditions. Researchers suggest CERKL's function supports photoreceptor cells in the retinan important for light detection in vertebrate vision systems.

Pathways

CERKL contributes to the balance of apoptotic and survival signals within the PI3K/Akt pathway. Its function ensures protection against cellular damage in oxidative environments. CERKL associates with proteins such as Akt a well-known kinase regulating cell survival and growth. Its role in these pathways highlights its impact on cellular resilience.

Associated diseases and disorders

CERKL mutations link to cases of retinitis pigmentosa and cone-rod dystrophy. These are degenerative retinal diseases leading to vision loss. The connection between CERKL and these disorders indicates its critical role in retinal health. Additionally understanding CERKL's interaction with proteins like RDH12 can offer insights into photoreceptor cell survival and possibly aid in developing therapeutic strategies.
