Function

As a component of the LINC (LInker of Nucleoskeleton and Cytoskeleton) complex, involved in the connection between the nuclear lamina and the cytoskeleton. The nucleocytoplasmic interactions established by the LINC complex play an important role in the transmission of mechanical forces across the nuclear envelope and in nuclear movement and positioning. Required for telomere attachment to nuclear envelope in the prophase of meiosis (PubMed:35587281). Required for rapid telomere prophase movements implicating a SUN1/2:KASH5 LINC complex in which SUN1 and SUN2 seem to act at least partial redundantly. Required for homolog pairing during meiotic prophase in spermatocytes and probably oocytes. Essential for male and female gametogenesis (PubMed:35587281). Recruits cytoplasmic dynein to telomere attachment sites at the nuclear envelope in spermatocytes. In oocytes is involved in meiotic resumption and spindle formation.

Activity summary

KASH5 also known as the Kinesin-Associated Scaffold Protein 5 is a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 87 kDa. It operates mechanistically by playing a role in the nuclear envelope as part of the LINC complex essential for nuclear-cytoskeletal coupling. This protein is mainly expressed in the testes of mammals indicating a role in reproductive biology. As a component of the outer nuclear membrane KASH5 connects to microtubules and regulates their dynamics.

Biological function summary

KASH5 plays a critical role in meiotic chromosome movements ensuring proper alignment and segregation during cell division. It acts as part of the larger machinery that includes the LINC complex which bridges the nuclear lamina with the cytoskeleton. KASH5 works closely with SUN proteins facilitating dynein and kinesin motor activity. This association aids in the transmission of mechanical cues necessary for cellular processes.

Pathways

KASH5 integrates into the broader landscape of the meiotic cell cycle regulation and nuclear envelope positioning. It interacts prominently within the nuclear dynamics pathway relying on its cooperation with SUN2 and Nesprin proteins. Through these pathways it modulates chromosome positioning and facilitates kinetochore function during cell division ensuring genetic stability.

Associated diseases and disorders

KASH5 mutations or dysfunctions have been implicated in fertility issues particularly impacting spermatogenesis. Moreover alterations in its function connect to certain muscular dystrophies as it affects muscle cell nuclei positioning. Its relationship with disorders often involves interactions with proteins like Lamin A/C which impacts nuclear integrity in neuromuscular diseases.
