High impact information on Spag9

  • Activation of p38{alpha}/{beta} MAPK in myogenesis via binding of the scaffold protein JLP to the cell surface protein Cdo [1].
  • Like other members of the JIP family of scaffold proteins, JIP4 binds JNK and also the light chain of the microtubule motor protein kinesin-1 [2].
  • The primary sequence of JIP4 is most closely related to that of JIP3 [2].
  • The JIP4 scaffold protein therefore appears to be a new component of the p38 MAP kinase signaling pathway [2].
  • Role of the JIP4 scaffold protein in the regulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways [2].
 

Associations of Spag9 with chemical compounds

  • JLP is a proline-rich protein that contains two leucine zipper domains and a highly conserved C-terminal domain [3].
  • Endodermal differentiation of murine embryonic carcinoma cells by retinoic acid requires JLP, a JNK-scaffolding protein [4].
 

Other interactions of Spag9

  • Specifically, JIP4 does not activate JNK signaling [2].
  • Mutations of Leu-280, Leu-287, Val-294, and Leu-301 within this domain of KLC1 disrupted its ability to associate with JLP [3].
