Research Abstract |
PKD2 is a major subtype of the PKD family kinases expressed in T cells. We found that one of the substrates of PKD2 is SET protein, a natural inhibitor of PP2A phosphatase. One of the phosphorylation site in SET protein by PKD2 is revealed to be Ser171 and the phosphorylation compromised the inhibitory effect of SET protein to PP2A. In addition, knockdown of PKD2 expression in Jurkat cells suppressed up-regulation of PP2A activity after TCR stimulation.
