RPA1

P27694

Neuronal receptor tyrosine kinase that is essentiallyand transiently expressed in specific regions of the central andperipheral nervous systems and plays an important role in thegenesis and differentiation of the nervous system. Transducessignals from ligands at the cell surface, through specificactivation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway.Phosphorylates almost exclusively at the first tyrosine of the Y-x-x-x-Y-Y motif. Following activation by ligand, ALK inducestyrosine phosphorylation of CBL, FRS2, IRS1 and SHC1, as well asof the MAP kinases MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1. Acts as a receptorfor ligands pleiotrophin (PTN), a secreted growth factor, andmidkine (MDK), a PTN-related factor, thus participating in PTN andMDK signal transduction. PTN-binding induces MAPK pathwayactivation, which is important for the anti-apoptotic signaling ofPTN and regulation of cell proliferation. MDK-binding inducesphosphorylation of the ALK target insulin receptor substrate(IRS1), activates mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) andPI3-kinase, resulting also in cell proliferation induction. DrivesNF-kappa-B activation, probably through IRS1 and the activation ofthe AKT serine/threonine kinase. Recruitment of IRS1 to activatedALK and the activation of NF-kappa-B are essential for theautocrine growth and survival signaling of MDK.{ECO:0000269|PubMed:11121404, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11278720,ECO:0000269|PubMed:11387242, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11809760,ECO:0000269|PubMed:12107166, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12122009,ECO:0000269|PubMed:15226403, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15908427,ECO:0000269|PubMed:16317043, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16878150,ECO:0000269|PubMed:17274988}. As part of the heterotrimeric replication protein Acomplex (RPA/RP-A), binds and stabilizes single-stranded DNAintermediates, that form during DNA replication or upon DNAstress. It prevents their reannealing and in parallel, recruitsand activates different proteins and complexes involved in DNAmetabolism (PubMed:27723720, PubMed:27723717). Thereby, it playsan essential role both in DNA replication and the cellularresponse to DNA damage (PubMed:9430682). In the cellular responseto DNA damage, the RPA complex controls DNA repair and DNA damagecheckpoint activation. Through recruitment of ATRIP activates theATR kinase a master regulator of the DNA damage response(PubMed:24332808). It is required for the recruitment of the DNAdouble-strand break repair factors RAD51 and RAD52 to chromatin inresponse to DNA damage (PubMed:17765923). Also recruits to sitesof DNA damage proteins like XPA and XPG that are involved innucleotide excision repair and is required for this mechanism ofDNA repair (PubMed:7697716). Plays also a role in base excisionrepair (BER) probably through interaction with UNG(PubMed:9765279). Also recruits SMARCAL1/HARP, which is involvedin replication fork restart, to sites of DNA damage. May also playa role in telomere maintenance (PubMed:17959650). As part of thealternative replication protein A complex, aRPA, binds single-stranded DNA and probably plays a role in DNA repair. Compared tothe RPA2-containing, canonical RPA complex, may not supportchromosomal DNA replication and cell cycle progression through S-phase. The aRPA may not promote efficient priming by DNApolymerase alpha but could support DNA synthesis by polymerasedelta in presence of PCNA and replication factor C (RFC), the dualincision/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair andRAD51-dependent strand exchange (PubMed:19996105).{ECO:0000269|PubMed:12791985, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17765923,ECO:0000269|PubMed:17959650, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19116208,ECO:0000269|PubMed:19996105, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24332808,ECO:0000269|PubMed:27723717, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27723720,ECO:0000269|PubMed:7697716, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7700386,ECO:0000269|PubMed:9430682, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9765279}.
