== Disease ==

[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DYR1A_HUMAN DYR1A_HUMAN] Defects in DYRK1A are the cause of mental retardation autosomal dominant type 7 (MRD7) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/614104 614104]. A disease characterized by primary microcephaly, severe mental retardation without speech, anxious autistic behavior, and dysmorphic features, including bitemporal narrowing, deep-set eyes, large simple ears, and a pointed nasal tip. Mental retardation is characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptative behavior and manifested during the developmental period.<ref>PMID:21294719</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==

Homeodomain-interacting protein kinases (HIPKs) belong to the CMGC kinase family and are closely related to dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinases (DYRKs). HIPKs are regulators of various signaling pathways and involved in the pathology of cancer, chronic fibrosis, diabetes, and multiple neurodegenerative diseases. Here, we report the crystal structure of HIPK3 in its apo form at 2.5 A resolution. Recombinant HIPKs and DYRK1A are auto-activated and phosphorylate the negative elongation factor SPT5, the transcription factor c-Myc, and the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, suggesting a direct function in transcriptional regulation. Based on a database search, we identified abemaciclib, an FDA-approved Cdk4/Cdk6 inhibitor used for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, as potent inhibitor of HIPK2, HIPK3, and DYRK1A. We determined the crystal structures of HIPK3 and DYRK1A bound to abemaciclib, showing a similar binding mode to the hinge region of the kinase as observed for Cdk6. Remarkably, DYRK1A is inhibited by abemaciclib to the same extent as Cdk4/Cdk6 in vitro, raising the question of whether targeting of DYRK1A contributes to the transcriptional inhibition and therapeutic activity of abemaciclib.

Abemaciclib is a potent inhibitor of DYRK1A and HIP kinases involved in transcriptional regulation.,Kaltheuner IH, Anand K, Moecking J, Duster R, Wang J, Gray NS, Geyer M Nat Commun. 2021 Nov 16;12(1):6607. doi: 10.1038/s41467-021-26935-z. PMID:34785661<ref>PMID:34785661</ref>
