KIAA2012 is a protein which, in humans, is encoded by the KIAA2012 gene. KIAA2012 is expressed at very low levels throughout the body, but it is primarily expressed in the ovary, lungs, and brain.[5]

Gene

KIAA2012 is located on the positive sense strand at position 2q33.1.[6] KIAA2012 has 24 exons, and it spans 131,934 bases including introns. No aliases or common names are used in addition to KIAA2012.

Gene level regulation

[edit]

Within the promoter region of KIAA2012, there is a highly conserved transcription factor binding site that has no common SNPs.[7] The RFX transcription factors, more specifically RFX1-6, bind to this highly conserved region and regulates cellular specialization and differentiation.[8] The image below shows the promoter region of KIAA2012 with the highly conserved RFX1-6 binding site.[7]

mRNA

[edit]

KIAA2012 is expressed differentially in the body at low levels. Of this overall low expression, KIAA2012 is expressed most highly in the brain, lungs, and ovary.[5][9] KIAA2012 is expressed at lower levels in the liver, trachea, and testes.[10][11][12]

Protein

[edit]

Unmodified KIAA2012 is 1,181 amino acids in length, has a molecular weight of 136 kdal, and an isoelectric pH around 8.[13][14]

Internal features

[edit]

KIAA2012 is rich in glutamic acid and glutamine, and it is poor in valine.[13] There is also one mixed charge cluster between amino acids 951–1118.[15] There is one Domain of Unknown Function (DUF 4670) within KIAA2012 spanning from amino acid 635 to amino acid 1137.[6] Different than the whole KIAA2012, DUF 4670 is also rich in arginine and poor in glycine and phenylalanine.[13]

Structure

[edit]

The secondary structure of KIAA2012 consists primarily of alpha helices. On the left, a high confidence prediction of the secondary structure is shown. On the right, the entire 3-D structure is shown, showing how the alpha helices fold to form the entire KIAA2012 protein.

Post-translational modification

[edit]

KIAA2012 has a highly conserved cGMP-dependent protein kinase binding domain. These cGMP-dependent protein kinases (PRKG) are a part of the NO/cGMP signaling pathway, and they are important factors in many signal transduction processes.[16] Additionally, there are many potential sites for phosphorylation, SUMOylation, and myristoylation. In instances where KIAA2012 is post-translationally modified in these ways, the resulting charge, structure, function, and sub-cellular localization can be altered.[17][18]

Sub-cellular Localization

[edit]

Proteins tagged with localization signals will be transported to various regions of the cell. KIAA2012 contains nuclear localization signal sequences, which are short stretches of amino acids that moderate transportation of nuclear proteins to the nucleus.[19] Shown in the table below, human KIAA2012 and two orthologs are listed with confidence values of where in the cell KIAA2012 is localized.[20]

Sardinian Tree Frog 78% 9% 9% 4% --- ---
Zebrafish 74% 9% 4% --- 9% 4%

Function

[edit]

KIAA2012 has predicted protein interactions with STAG2 and SMC1A.[21] STAG2 encodes a subunit of cohesion complexes used to regulate sister chromatid separation during cell division.[22] SMC1A is an important part of functional kinetochores due to its role in the multiprotein cohesion complex required for sister chromatid cohesion.[23] Because KIAA2012 is localized in the nucleus and interacts with STAG2 and SMC1A, its role as a protein surrounds DNA manipulation or cell division.
