Beschreibung

General description

PINK1 is a Ser/Thr kinase that has beenlocalized to the mitochondria, and thought to protectcells from stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction.

PTEN induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) is a serine/threonine kinase expressed in mitochondria. It contains an N-terminal mitochondrial targeting motif and a highly conserved kinase domain homologous to serine/threonine kinases of the Ca2+/calmodulin family.

Application

Anti-PINK1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PINK1 (PTEN induced putative kinase 1, also known as PARK6 and BRPK), has been identified as linked to the autosomal recessive form of familial Parkinson disease (PD). PINK1 localized to the mitochondria protects cells from stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Overexpression of wild-type PINK1 has been found to protect neurons from stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis. Genetic studies in drosophila indicate that PINK1 acts upstream of Parkin in a common pathway that influences mitochondrial morphology. PINK1 activity has been shown to protect primary neurons in mouse from the dopaminergic neurotoxin MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenylpyridine (MPP+)/1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine) both in vitro and in vivo. This protective activity requires PINK1 kinase activity, as a PINK1 G309D mutant linked to familial PD or a kinase dead mutant K219M are not protective. PINK1 has been shown to be cleaved and localized to the mitochondria, in response to enhanced proteasomal stress in vitro and correlates with increased expression of the processed PINK1 protein in PD brain.
