Chk2 molecular interaction map and rationale for Chk2 inhibitors.
To organize the rapidly accumulating information on bioregulatory networks related to the histone gamma-H2AX-ATM-Chk2-p53-Mdm2 pathways in concise and unambiguous diagrams, we used the molecular interaction map notation (http://discover.nci.nih.gov/min). Molecular interaction maps are particularly useful for networks that include protein-protein binding and posttranslational modifications (e.g....
متن کاملPromyelocytic leukemia activates Chk2 by mediating Chk2 autophosphorylation.
Chk2 is a kinase critical for DNA damage-induced apoptosis and is considered a tumor suppressor. Chk2 is essential for p53 transcriptional and apoptotic activities. Although mutations of p53 are present in more than half of all tumors, mutations of Chk2 in cancers are rare, suggesting that Chk2 may be inactivated by unknown alternative mechanisms. Here we elucidate one such alternative mechanis...
متن کاملp53, CHK2, and CHK1 genes in Finnish families with Li-Fraumeni syndrome: further evidence of CHK2 in inherited cancer predisposition.
Germ-line mutations in the p53 gene predispose individuals to Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS). The cell cycle checkpoint kinases CHK1 and CHK2 act upstream of p53 in DNA damage responses, and recently rare germ-line mutations in CHK2 were reported in LFS families. We have analyzed CHK1, CHK2, and p53 genes for mutations in 44 Finnish families with LFS, Li-Fraumeni-like syndrome, or families phenotyp...
متن کاملCCT241533 is a potent and selective inhibitor of CHK2 that potentiates the cytotoxicity of PARP inhibitors.
CHK2 is a checkpoint kinase involved in the ATM-mediated response to double-strand DNA breaks. Its potential as a drug target is still unclear, but inhibitors of CHK2 may increase the efficacy of genotoxic cancer therapies in a p53 mutant background by eliminating one of the checkpoints or DNA repair pathways contributing to cellular resistance. We report here the identification and characteriz...
متن کاملKinase-independent role for CRAF-driving tumour radioresistance via CHK2
Although oncology therapy regimens commonly include radiation and genotoxic drugs, tumour cells typically develop resistance to these interventions. Here we report that treatment of tumours with ionizing radiation or genotoxic drugs drives p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1)-mediated phosphorylation of CRAF on Serine 338 (pS338) triggering a kinase-independent mechanism of DNA repair and therapeutic ...
