CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE FHA DOMAIN OF HUMAN POLYNUCLEOTIDE KINASE 3' PHOSPHATASE
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 19155274
Disease
[PNKP_HUMAN] Defects in PNKP are the cause of epileptic encephalopathy, early infantile, type 10 (EIEE10) [MIM:613402]. A disease characterized by microcephaly, infantile-onset seizures, severe intellectual disability and delayed motor milestones with absent speech or only achieving a few words. Most patients also have behavioral problems with hyperactivity. Microcephaly is progressive and without neuronal migration or structural abnormalities, consistent with primary microcephaly.[1]
Function
[PNKP_HUMAN] Plays a key role in the repair of DNA damage, functioning as part of both the non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) and base excision repair (BER) pathways. Through its two catalytic activities, PNK ensures that DNA termini are compatible with extension and ligation by either removing 3'-phosphates from, or by phosphorylating 5'-hydroxyl groups on, the ribose sugar of the DNA backbone.[2]
