Summary

SYMPK (symplekin scaffold protein, HGNC:22935) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.32, encoding Symplekin (Q92797). Scaffold protein that functions as a component of a multimolecular complex involved in histone mRNA 3’-end processing. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 99.4% of cancer cell lines).

This gene encodes a nuclear protein that functions in the regulation of polyadenylation and promotes gene expression. The protein forms a high-molecular weight complex with components of the polyadenylation machinery. It is thought to serve as a scaffold for recruiting regulatory factors to the polyadenylation complex. It also participates in 3’-end maturation of histone mRNAs, which do not undergo polyadenylation. The protein also localizes to the cytoplasmic plaques of tight junctions in some cell types.

  • symplekin has a role in HSF1 modulation of Hsp70 mRNA polyadenylation (PMID:14707147)
  • In Xenopus, symplekin interacts with the CPSF complex and the regulatory protein CPEB, and is required for polyadenylation of CPE-containing RNA (PMID:15550246)
  • The decreased expression of symplekin may be an early step in the transformation of hepatocytes, whereas alteration of the expression of adherens junctions and desmosomes may indicate more serious changes. (PMID:17880531)
  • The symplekin/ZONAB complex inhibits intestinal cell differentiation by the repression of AML1/Runx1. (PMID:19328795)
  • Data show that claudin-2 expression was reduced following symplekin down-regulation, and siRNA-mediated claudin-2 down-regulation increased the transepithelial resistance and decreased cyclin D1 expression and ZONAB nuclear localization. (PMID:20133805)
  • Symplekin supports faithful mitosis by contributing to the formation of a bipolar spindle apparatus. Depletion of symplekin attenuates microtubule polymerization as well as expression of the critical microtubule polymerization protein CKAP5 (TOGp). (PMID:20823274)
  • crystal structure at 2.4 A resolution of the amino-terminal domain (residues 30-340) of human symplekin in a ternary complex with the Pol II carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) Ser 5 phosphatase Ssu72 and a CTD Ser 5 phosphopeptide (PMID:20861839)
  • Symplekin expression regulates the assembly of tight junctions, thus helps to maintain the integrity of the epithelial monolayer and cellular polarity. (PMID:22218735)
  • Symplekin interacts and co-localizes with both MOZ and MLL in immature hematopoietic cells. Its inhibition leads to a decrease of the HOXA9 protein level but not of Hoxa9 mRNA. (PMID:23994619)

  • The significance of nuclear symplekin in tumorigenesis is also highlighted, and ERK-dependent phosphorylation represents a mechanism for its subcellular sorting. (PMID:28630428)
  • Results indicated that reductase becomes destabilized in the absence of UBIAD1, resulting in reduced cholesterol synthesis and intracellular accumulation. Findings further establish UBIAD1 as a central player in the reductase ERAD pathway and regulation of isoprenoid synthesis. (PMID:29167270)

Function. Scaffold protein that functions as a component of a multimolecular complex involved in histone mRNA 3’-end processing. Specific component of the tight junction (TJ) plaque, but might not be an exclusively junctional component. May have a house-keeping rule. Is involved in pre-mRNA polyadenylation. Enhances SSU72 phosphatase activity.

Subunit / interactions. Found in a heat-sensitive complex at least composed of several cleavage and polyadenylation specific and cleavage stimulation factors. Interacts with CPSF2, CPSF3 and CSTF2. Interacts (via N-terminus) with HSF1; this interaction is direct and occurs upon heat shock. Interacts with SSU72.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Cell junction. Tight junction. Cell membrane. Nucleus. Nucleoplasm.

Tissue specificity. In testis, expressed in polar epithelia and Sertoli cells but not in vascular endothelia. The protein is detected in stomach, duodenum, pancreas, liver, fetal brain, carcinomas, lens-forming cells, fibroblasts, lymphocytes, lymphoma cells, erythroleukemia cells but not in endothelium of vessels, epidermis, intercalated disks, Purkinje fiber cells of the heart and lymph node.

Domain organisation. The HEAT repeats have been determined based on 3D-structure analysis of the D.melanogaster ortholog and are not detected by sequence-based prediction programs.

Miscellaneous. Could be used as a differentiation marker in the differential diagnosis of tumors. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.

Similarity. Belongs to the Symplekin family.

Molecules with ChEMBL bioactivity

1 molecules (phase ≥1), by development phase (incl. off-target/promiscuous compounds). Patent mentions across the top 20 by phase: 1,538 (via chembl_molecule»patent_compound — counts attach to the compound, not the gene–compound relationship, so off-target/promiscuous molecules can dominate).
