Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase FKBP1A (FKBP1A)

The protein contains 108 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 11951 Da.

 

Keeps in an inactive conformation TGFBR1, the TGF-beta type I serine/threonine kinase receptor, preventing TGF-beta receptor activation in absence of ligand. Recruits SMAD7 to ACVR1B which prevents the association of SMAD2 and SMAD3 with the activin receptor complex, thereby blocking the activin signal. May modulate the RYR1 calcium channel activity. PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides. (updated: Jan. 31, 2018)

DESCRIPTION

Immunophilins are a family of highly conserved proteins that bind with immunosuppressive drugs, such as FK506, rapamycin, and cyclosporin A (CsA). The 2 major types of immunophilins are FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs), most of which bind FK506 and rapamycin, and cyclophilins (e.g., PPIA; 123840), which bind CsA. Most FKBPs, including FKBP1A, exhibit peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase; EC 5.2.1.8) activity. FKBPs are involved in numerous biologic processes, including protein folding, receptor signaling, protein trafficking, transcription, apoptosis, and T-cell activation (review by Kang et al., 2008).

CLONING

Maki et al. (1990) isolated and sequenced DNA coding for FKBP from human peripheral blood T lymphocytes by using mixed 20-mer oligonucleotide probes synthesized on the basis of the sequence of bovine Fkbp. They found an ORF encoding 108 amino acids, the first 40 of which are identical to those of the bovine sequence. Analysis showed no significant sequence similarity to other proteins, including cyclophilin (PPIA; 123840). Southern blot analysis of human genomic DNA suggested the existence of only a few copies of the FKBP gene. This is in contrast to results indicating as many as 20 copies of the cyclophilin gene, as well as possible pseudogenes, in the mammalian genome. Standaert et al. (1990) likewise isolated a cDNA for FKBP and reported the derived amino acid sequence. The human FKBP cDNA sequence shares significant similarity with an ORF in the genome of Neisseria meningitidis. Peattie et al. (1994) identified 3 distinct mRNAs for FKBP12, designated A, B, and C, that result from differential splicing or polyadenylation. All 3 encode the same protein sequence.

GENE FUNCTION

Jin et al. (1991) noted that the 12-kD FKBP is a cytosolic receptor for rapamycin and FK506, both of which are immunosuppressants. Wang et al. (1994) reported that in a yeast genetic screen, FKBP1 interacted with various type I receptors, including the TGF-beta type I receptor (190181). Deletion, point mutation, and coimmunoprecipitation studies demonstrated the specificity of this interaction, and competitive binding assays indicated that the type I receptor may be a natural ligand for FKBP1. Wang et al. (1994) concluded that FKBP1 may play a role in type I receptor-mediated signaling. - Reviews Kang et al. (2008) reviewed the molecular characteristics of FKBP family members, including FKBP1A, and the biologic functions of their ligands in performing neuroprotective and neurotrophic activities.

MAPPING

Using PCR to amplify an intron-containing region of the gene in purified DNA isolated from human/rodent somatic cell hybrids, DiLella (1991) assigned the FKBP1 gene to human chromosome 20. DiLella et al. (1992) used fluorescence in situ hybridization to map the FKBP1 gene to chromosome 20p13.

ANIMAL MODEL

To define the functions of FKBP12 in vivo, Shou et al. (1998) generated mutant mice deficient in Fkpb12 using embryonic stem (ES) cell technology. Fkbp12-deficient mice had normal skeletal muscle, but they had severe dilated cardiomyopathy and ventricular septal defects that mimicked a human congenital heart disorder, namely noncompaction of left ventricular myocardium (see 302060 for an X-linked form of myocardial noncompaction). About 9% of the mutants exhibited exencephaly secondary to a defect in neural tube closure. Physiologic studies demonstrated that Fkbp12 was dispensable for ... More on the omim web site
