High impact information on CAB39

  • Interestingly, 12 of these mutants failed to interact with STRAD-MO25 [1].
  • In vivo, LKB1 forms a complex with STRAD, an inactive pseudokinase, and MO25, an armadillo repeat scaffolding-like protein [1].
  • The LKB1-STE-related adaptor (STRAD)-mouse protein 25 (MO25) complex is the major AMPKK in skeletal muscle; however, LKB1-STRAD-MO25 activity is not increased by muscle contraction [2].
 

Biological context of CAB39

  • Human MO25 is a cofactor of LKB1, a conserved protein kinase with roles in cell polarity in nematodes, flies and mammalian cells [3].
 

Physical interactions of CAB39

  • MO25 alpha binds directly to a conserved Trp-Glu-Phe sequence at the STRAD alpha C terminus, markedly enhancing binding of STRAD alpha to LKB1 and increasing LKB1 catalytic activity [4].
