PIM-1L Kinase Binds to and Inactivates SRPK1: A Biochemical and Molecular Dynamics Study.

ABSTRACT: SR/RS dipeptide repeats vary in both length and position, and are phosphorylated by SR protein kinases (SRPKs). PIM-1L, the long isoform of PIM-1 kinase, the splicing of which has been implicated in acute myeloid leukemia, contains a domain that consists largely of repeating SR/RS and SH/HS dipeptides (SR/SH-rich). In order to extend our knowledge on the specificity and cellular functions of SRPK1, here we investigate whether PIM-1L could act as substrate of SRPK1 by a combination of biochemical and computational approaches. Our biochemical data showed that the SR/SH-rich domain of PIM-1L was able to associate with SRPK1, yet it could not act as a substrate but, instead, inactivated the kinase. In line with our biochemical data, molecular modeling followed by a microsecond-scale all-atom m
