Supplementary information

PBK/SPK also known as PDZ-binding kinase or Cdc2-related kinase is a serine/threonine protein kinase with an approximate molecular weight of 47 kDa. This protein is involved in cell division playing an important role in mitotic processes. PBK/SPK is expressed in various tissues including significant levels in testis and placenta often in proliferating cell types. It also exhibits higher expression in cancerous tissues suggesting a role in tumorigenesis.
Biological function summary

PBK/SPK facilitates cell cycle progression and cellular proliferation. This protein is not typically part of larger complexes but it partners with other molecules during cell division to ensure proper mitotic spindle formation and chromosome segregation. Its expression levels increase during the G2/M phase of the cell cycle indicating its involvement in cell cycle regulation. In cancer it often shows overexpression contributing to unregulated proliferation of cancer cells.

Pathways

PBK/SPK is associated with critical cell division pathways such as the MAPK signaling pathway. This involvement impacts cellular responses to growth signals and stress. PBK can phosphorylate and interact with proteins like p38 MAPK which further modulates signal transduction related to cellular growth and survival. Through these pathways PBK/SPK helps manage the balance between cell division and apoptosis particularly under stress conditions.

PBK/SPK has strong correlations with cancer especially glioblastoma and cervical cancer. Overexpression of PBK often links to poor prognosis in these conditions. In cancerous settings PBK interacts with proteins such as p53 and c-Myc influencing tumor progression and resistance to therapy. PBK can modulate oncogenic pathways providing a potential target for therapeutic intervention in tumor proliferation and survival.

Target data

Phosphorylates MAP kinase p38. Seems to be active only in mitosis. May also play a role in the activation of lymphoid cells. When phosphorylated, forms a complex with TP53, leading to TP53 destabilization and attenuation of G2/M checkpoint during doxorubicin-induced DNA damage.
