p53-related protein kinase confers poor prognosis and represents a novel therapeutic target in multiple myeloma
12 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
p53-related protein kinase (TP53RK, also known as PRPK) is an upstream kinase that phosphorylates (serine residue Ser15) and mediates p53 activity. Here we show that TP53RK confers poor prognosis in multiple myeloma (MM) patients, and, conversely, that TP53RK knockdown inhibits p53 phosphorylation and triggers MM cell apoptosis, associated with downregulation of c-Myc and E2F-1-mediated upregulation of...
