Function

Phosphorylates the splicing regulator TIA1, thereby promoting the inclusion of FAS exon 6, which leads to an mRNA encoding a pro-apoptotic form of the receptor.Isoform 4Required for the biogenesis of some mitochondrial-encoded mRNAs, specifically stabilizes ND6 (NADH dehydrogenase complex subunit 6) mRNA, and regulates its levels.

Supplementary info

Activity summary

FASTK also known as Fas-activated serine/threonine kinase is an enzyme that functions primarily in the mitochondria of cells. This protein weighs approximately 65 kDa. FASTK is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues but it shows higher levels in heart and skeletal muscle. FASTK plays a role in RNA processing especially in regulating the stability of specific RNA molecules in mitochondria.

Biological function summary

FASTK associates with a larger protein complex involved in mitochondrial RNA surveillance. This complex targets and stabilizes mitochondrial transcripts important for mitochondrial protein synthesis. Through its RNA-binding capability FASTK influences the production of ATP by maintaining proper mitochondrial function and energy metabolism.

Pathways

FASTK operates within mitochondrial gene expression and oxidative phosphorylation pathways. It is associated with proteins like FASTKD2 and TFB2M which also participate in mitochondrial RNA processing and ribosome biogenesis. This interplay is essential for responding to cellular energy demands and maintaining cellular homeostasis.

Associated diseases and disorders

Disruptions in FASTK activity relate to mitochondrial myopathy and neurodegenerative disorders such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Mutations in proteins like FASTKD2 and other mitochondrial RNA-binding proteins can influence these conditions highlighting the significance of FASTK in maintaining mitochondrial integrity.

    Western blot - Anti-FASTK antibody (ab97544)

    FASTK siRNA interference assay. Three siRNA sequences targeting different sites of human FASTK cDNA and a scrambled control siRNA (si-NC) were transfected into U251 cells using Lipofectamine 2000. Total protein or total RNA was isolated at 48 h or 24 h post-transfection. FASTK protein levels were determined by western blot analysis using ab97544 at a dilution of 1/500 (A). The secondary antibody was a rabbit IgG-HRP and the quantitive data was obtained with the Quantity One analysis program. FASTK mRNA levels were assessed by qRT-PCR (B).
