 Research Background
Signal transduction pathways regulate many different aspects of cellular metabolism, function and development. Recently many components of each
signaling pathway were identified and characterized as important molecules to understand several cancers and genetic diseases. Protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation is one of the major mechanisms of signal integration in eukaryotic cells. It can be achieved through the phosphorylation of proteins that control the levels of second messengers, through the phosphorylation of protein kinases and phosphatases themselves, or through the reversible phosphorylation of their substrates. The family of homeodomain interacting protein kinases (HIPKs) consists of four related kinases termed HIPK1 to HIPK4. HIPKs function as a switchboard regulating the transcriptional machinery, development, differentiation and cell death (Fig. 1). In response to DNA damage, cells have to decide between different cell fate programs. Activation of the tumor suppressor HIPK2 specifies the DNA damage response and tips the cell fate balance between DNA repair and apoptotic response. Our recent work has identified HIPK2 as a regulator of the initiation and termination of DNA repair in response to ionizing radiation (Fig. 2). Furthermore, HIPK2 triggers apoptosis through regulatory phosphorylation of a set of cellular key molecules including the tumor suppressor p53 and CtBP (Fig. 3). A number of conditions representing precarious situations such as DNA damage, hypoxia, reactive oxygen intermediates and metabolic stress affect the function of HIPKs. The kinases function as integrators for these stress signals and feed them into many different downstream effector pathways that serve to cope with these precarious situations. Their central role as signaling hubs with the ability to shape many downstream effector pathways frequently implies them in proliferative diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disease and fibrosis (Fig. 4). So we have interested in the deciphering molecular networks of signaling pathway particularly associated with human diseases such as cancer, diabetes, neurodegenerative disease.
