TOPK

TOPK

PDZ-binding kinase, also known as PBK or T lymphokine-activated killer cell-originated protein kinase (TOPK), is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that is highly expressed in a variety of human cancers, including breast and lung cancers. The "consensus stemness ranking signature" gene list, which is up-regulated in tumors that are enriched in cancer stem cells and is linked to a poor prognosis in a number of cancer types, includes TOPK.

A common oncogenic kinase that is upregulated in most human cancers is TOPK/PBK. The activation of TOPK requires its phosphorylation by Cdk1, which is necessary for mitotic cell division.

TOPK, a member of the MAPKK family that is related to MEK3/6 and is found in a variety of proliferating cells and tissues, including testicles and cancer cells, is expressed. By phosphorylating the p38-specific phosphatase MKP1 and increasing its stability, TOPK inhibits the activity of p38. The MKP family's prototypical member, the MAPK phosphatase MKP1, is essential for the dephosphorylation reaction that results in the deactivation of p38.
