DYRK1A

Dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DYRK1A gene.^[5] Alternative splicing of this gene generates several transcript variants differing from each other either in the 5' UTR or in the 3' coding region.^[6] These variants encode for at least five different isoforms.^[7]

Function

See also: Dual-specificity kinase

DYRK1A is a member of the dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase (DYRK) family. This member contains a nuclear targeting signal sequence, a protein kinase domain, a leucine zipper motif, and a highly conservative 13-consecutive-histidine repeat. It catalyzes its autophosphorylation on serine/threonine and tyrosine residues. It may play a significant role in a signaling pathway regulating cell proliferation and may be involved in brain development. This gene is a homolog of the Drosophila mnb (minibrain) gene.^[7]

DYRK1A has also been shown to modulate plasma homocysteine levels in a mouse model of overexpression.^[8]

Clinical significance

DYRK1A is localized in the Down syndrome critical region of chromosome 21, and is considered to be a strong candidate gene for learning defects associated with Down syndrome.^[7] In addition, a polymorphism (SNP) in DYRK1A was found to be associated with HIV-1 replication in monocyte-derived macrophages, as well as with slower progression to AIDS in two independent cohorts of HIV-1-infected individuals.^[6] Mutations in DYRK1A are also associated with autism spectrum disorder.^[9]

Interactions

DYRK1A has been shown to interact with WDR68.^[10]

In popular culture

Rosie, the protagonist of BBC sitcom There She Goes, has the DYRK1A gene, as revealed in the show's final episode.^[11]
