Supplementary information

SKAP also known as Src Kinase-Associated Phosphoprotein of 55 kDa is an adaptor protein that plays an important role in T cell activation. It weighs approximately 55 kDa and is prominently expressed in lymphoid tissues where it supports the immune response. Functionally SKAP forms part of signaling cascades that transmit extracellular signals into the cell interior modulating cellular activities.
Biological function summary

SKAP regulates immune cell function by influencing adhesion and migration processes. It often forms part of larger complexes within the immune synapse facilitating interactions between proteins necessary for efficient signaling. SKAP's role in T cells involves partnering with other signaling molecules to strengthen immune responses against infections by promoting cell adhesion.

Pathways

SKAP participates actively in the T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling and integrin-mediated pathways. It associates with proteins such as LFA-1 an important integrin that mediates cell adhesion. SKAP affects the downstream signaling events by modulating key interactions and conformations which are important for effective immune response initiation and regulation.

SKAP has notable connections with autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. Its deregulation affects the immune system's balance leading to exacerbated inflammatory responses. Connections to proteins like RapL which interacts with integrins to regulate cell adhesion and migration imply its involvements in pathological conditions involving the immune system's improper regulation.

Target data

Essential component of the mitotic spindle required for faithful chromosome segregation and progression into anaphase (PubMed : 19667759). Promotes the metaphase-to-anaphase transition and is required for chromosome alignment, normal timing of sister chromatid segregation, and maintenance of spindle pole architecture (PubMed : 19667759, PubMed : 22110139). The astrin (SPAG5)-kinastrin (SKAP) complex promotes stable microtubule-kinetochore attachments (PubMed : 21402792). Required for kinetochore oscillations and dynamics of microtubule plus-ends during live cell mitosis, possibly by forming a link between spindle microtubule plus-ends and mitotic chromosomes to achieve faithful cell division (PubMed : 23035123). May be involved in UV-induced apoptosis via its interaction with PRPF19; however, these results need additional evidences (PubMed : 24718257).
