May act as a mediator of inside-out integrin signaling. Focal adhesion protein part of the complex ILK-PINCH. This complex is considered to be one of the convergence points of integrin- and growth factor-signaling pathway. Could be implicated in mediating cell architecture, adhesion to integrin substrates and anchorage-dependent growth in epithelial cells.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) plays a pivotal role in connecting transmembrane receptor integrin to the actin cytoskeleton and thereby regulating diverse cell-adhesion-dependent processes. The kinase domain (KD) of ILK is indispensable for its function, but the underlying molecular basis remains enigmatic. Here we present the crystal structure of the ILK KD bound to its cytoskeletal regulator, the C-terminal calponin homology domain of alpha-parvin. While maintaining a canonical kinase fold, the ILK KD displays a striking pseudoactive site conformation. We show that rather than performing the kinase function, this conformation specifically recognizes alpha-parvin for promoting effective assembly of ILK into focal adhesions. The alpha-parvin-bound ILK KD can simultaneously engage integrin beta cytoplasmic tails. These results thus define ILK as a distinct pseudokinase that mechanically couples integrin and alpha-parvin for mediating cell adhesion. They also highlight functional diversity of the kinase fold and its "active" site in mediating many biological processes. The pseudoactive site of ILK is essential for its binding to alpha-Parvin and localization to focal adhesions.,Fukuda K, Gupta S, Chen K, Wu C, Qin J Mol Cell. 2009 Dec 11;36(5):819-30.
