Crystal structure of murine receptor-interacting protein kinase 4 (Ripk4) D143N in complex with lestaurtinib
Structural highlights
FunctionRIPK4_MOUSE Involved in stratified epithelial development (By similarity). It is a direct transcriptional target of TP63. Plays a role in NF-kappa-B activation.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedReceptor-interacting protein kinase 4 (RIPK4) is a highly conserved regulator of epidermal differentiation. Members of the RIPK family possess a common kinase domain as well as unique accessory domains that likely dictate subcellular localization and substrate preferences. Mutations in human RIPK4 manifest as Bartsocas-Papas syndrome (BPS), a genetic disorder characterized by severe craniofacial and limb abnormalities. We describe the structure of the murine Ripk4 (MmRipk4) kinase domain, in ATP- and inhibitor-bound forms. The crystallographic dimer of MmRipk4 is similar to those of RIPK2 and BRAF, and we show that the intact dimeric entity is required for MmRipk4 catalytic activity through a series of engineered mutations and cell-based assays. We also assess the impact of BPS mutations on protein structure and activity to elucidate the molecular origins of the disease.
