Function
[TNKS2_HUMAN] Poly-ADP-ribosyltransferase involved in various processes such as Wnt signaling pathway, telomere length and vesicle trafficking. Acts as an activator of the Wnt signaling pathway by mediating poly-ADP-ribosylation of AXIN1 and AXIN2, 2 key components of the beta-catenin destruction complex: poly-ADP-ribosylated target proteins are recognized by RNF146, which mediates their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. Also mediates poly-ADP-ribosylation of BLZF1 and CASC3, followed by recruitment of RNF146 and subsequent ubiquitination. Mediates poly-ADP-ribosylation of TERF1, thereby contributing to the regulation of telomere length. May also regulate vesicle trafficking and modulate the subcellular distribution of SLC2A4/GLUT4-vesicles.[1] [2] [3] [4]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Arpin is a newly discovered regulator of actin polymerization at the cell leading edge, which steers cell migration by exerting a negative control on the Arp2/3 complex. Arpin proteins have an acidic tail homologous to the acidic motif of the VCA domain of nucleation-promoting factors (NPFs). This tail is predicted to compete with the VCA of NPFs for binding to the Arp2/3 complex, thereby mitigating activation and/or tethering of the complex to sites of actin branching. Here, we investigated the structure of full-length Arpin using synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering, and of its acidic tail in complex with an ankyrin repeats domain using X-ray crystallography. The data were combined in a hybrid model in which the acidic tail extends from the globular core as a linear peptide and forms a primary epitope that is readily accessible in unbound Arpin and suffices to tether Arpin to interacting proteins with high affinity.
