Supplementary information

SMEK2 also known as protein phosphatase 4 regulatory subunit 3B (PPP4R3B) is a regulatory subunit of the protein phosphatase 4 (PP4) complex. SMEK2 exhibits a molecular mass of about 106 kDa. It is distributed in various tissues with notable expression in the brain and skeletal muscle. As part of the PP4 complex its primary role is to guide and regulate the specific functions of the catalytic subunits of the complex.
Biological function summary

SMEK2 regulates cellular processes by modulating phosphatase activity. It acts as part of the PP4 complex which includes the PP4 catalytic subunit and other regulatory subunits. This complex plays a role in diverse biological functions such as cellular response to DNA damage and cell division. By affecting dephosphorylation events SMEK2 influences cellular signaling allowing for precise cellular responses under varying conditions.

Pathways

SMEK2 significantly impacts the DNA damage response and cell cycle regulation pathways. It interacts closely with proteins such as PP4C the catalytic subunit of the PP4 complex and has connections to key checkpoint regulators in these pathways. Such interactions ensure accurate DNA repair and proper progression through cell cycle phases. Changes in SMEK2’s functionality or expression can disrupt these pathways leading to improper cellular responses.

Altered SMEK2 activity or expression has been associated with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In cancer SMEK2 along with PP4C influences tumor suppressor pathways by regulating processes like DNA damage repair. Disruption in these interactions can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation. Additionally abnormalities in SMEK2 have been linked to Alzheimer's disease possibly due to its involvement in neuronal signaling pathways and response to cellular stress.
