FunctionKPCT_HUMAN Calcium-independent, phospholipid- and diacylglycerol (DAG)-dependent serine/threonine-protein kinase that mediates non-redundant functions in T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling, including T-cells activation, proliferation, differentiation and survival, by mediating activation of multiple transcription factors such as NF-kappa-B, JUN, NFATC1 and NFATC2. In TCR-CD3/CD28-co-stimulated T-cells, is required for the activation of NF-kappa-B and JUN, which in turn are essential for IL2 production, and participates to the calcium-dependent NFATC1 and NFATC2 transactivation. Mediates the activation of the canonical NF-kappa-B pathway (NFKB1) by direct phosphorylation of CARD11 on several serine residues, inducing CARD11 association with lipid rafts and recruitment of the BCL10-MALT1 complex, which then activates IKK complex, resulting in nuclear translocation and activation of NFKB1. May also play an indirect role in activation of the non-canonical NF-kappa-B (NFKB2) pathway. In the signaling pathway leading to JUN activation, acts by phosphorylating the mediator STK39/SPAK and may not act through MAP kinases signaling. Plays a critical role in TCR/CD28-induced NFATC1 and NFATC2 transactivation by participating in the regulation of reduced inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate generation and intracellular calcium mobilization. After costimulation of T-cells through CD28 can phosphorylate CBLB and is required for the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of CBLB, which is a prerequisite for the activation of TCR. During T-cells differentiation, plays an important role in the development of T-helper 2 (Th2) cells following immune and inflammatory responses, and, in the development of inflammatory autoimmune diseases, is necessary for the activation of IL17-producing Th17 cells. May play a minor role in Th1 response. Upon TCR stimulation, mediates T-cell protective survival signal by phosphorylating BAD, thus protecting T-cells from BAD-induced apoptosis, and by up-regulating BCL-X(L)/BCL2L1 levels through NF-kappa-B and JUN pathways. In platelets, regulates signal transduction downstream of the ITGA2B, CD36/GP4, F2R/PAR1 and F2RL3/PAR4 receptors, playing a positive role in 'outside-in' signaling and granule secretion signal transduction. May relay signals from the activated ITGA2B receptor by regulating the uncoupling of WASP and WIPF1, thereby permitting the regulation of actin filament nucleation and branching activity of the Arp2/3 complex. May mediate inhibitory effects of free fatty acids on insulin signaling by phosphorylating IRS1, which in turn blocks IRS1 tyrosine phosphorylation and downstream activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Phosphorylates MSN (moesin) in the presence of phosphatidylglycerol or phosphatidylinositol. Phosphorylates PDPK1 at 'Ser-504' and 'Ser-532' and negatively regulates its ability to phosphorylate PKB/AKT1.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedAs exemplified by three cases, we show that the addition of a small molecular weight inhibitor to the culture of Baculovirus-infected insect cells can dramatically improve the expression of a recombinant kinase. The expression of the tyrosine kinase KDR was sevenfold higher and mainly in a soluble form, when the KDR inhibitor PTK/ZK was added to the culture at the time of Baculovirus infection. The expression of the catalytic domain of the serine/threonine kinase PKCtheta, which is otherwise not possible with the Baculovirus expression system, was expressed mainly soluble at 120mg/L by the addition of the PKC inhibitor BIM XI to the culture of Baculovirus-infected insect cells. For Abl kinase, the expression could also be significantly increased by the addition of the Abl kinase inhibitor STI571 to the culture. For all three kinases, this method had previously been applied by us for the improved production of kinase/inhibitor complex protein, leading to the co-crystal structures. It is shown here at the cases KDR-PTK/ZK and PKCtheta-BIM XI, that the stimulatory effect of an inhibitor on kinase expression is applicable under many culture conditions. The presented method represents a valuable tool to obtain structural knowledge on kinase-inhibitor complexes. Improved expression of kinases in Baculovirus-infected insect cells upon addition of specific kinase inhibitors to the culture helpful for structural studies.,Strauss A, Fendrich G, Horisberger MA, Liebetanz J, Meyhack B, Schlaeppi JM, Schmitz R Protein Expr Purif. 2007 Dec;56(2):167-76.
