PTEN induced putative kinase 1

Freeze-dried Powder. PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.01% SKL, 5% Trehalose.

Protects against mitochondrial dysfunction during cellular stress by phosphorylating mitochondrial proteins (PubMed:24652937). Involved in the clearance of damaged mitochondria via selective autophagy (mitophagy) by mediating activation and translocation of PRKN (PubMed:24784582). Targets PRKN to dysfunctional depolarized mitochondria through the phosphorylation of MFN2 (By similarity). Activates PRKN in 2 steps: (1) by mediating phosphorylation at 'Ser-65' of PRKN and (2) mediating phosphorylation of ubiquitin, converting PRKN to its fully-active form (PubMed:24784582). Required for ubiquinone reduction by mitochondrial complex I by mediating phosphorylation of complex I subunit NDUFA10 (PubMed:24652937).
