Target Details for TNKS

Target: TNKS (Tankyrase, TRF1-Interacting Ankyrin-Related ADP-Ribose Polymerase (TNKS))

Alternative Name: Tankyrase-1 (TANK1) (TNKS Products)

Background: Tankyrase is a protein with homology to ankyrins as well as to the catalytic domain of poly (adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase (PARP). Tankyrase localizes to telomeres by binding to the telomeric repeat binding factor 1 (TRF1) through its ankyrin repeats. TRF1 is a negative regulator of telomere length maintenance. Tankyrase exhibits PARP activity functioning as acceptors for adenosine diphosphate (ADP) ribosylation. Since ADP ribosylation of TRF1 diminishes its ability to bind to telomeric DNA, this suggests that telomere function in human cells is regulated by poly (ADP) ribosylation. Both the cell cycle and TRF1 may regulate the subcellular localization of tankyrase. During interphase tankyrase colocalizes with TRF1 to telomeres plus nuclear pore complexes whereas during mitosis tankyrase localizes around the pericentriolar matrix of mitotic chromosomes. Tankyrase may regulate vesicle trafficking and modulate the subcellular distribution of SLC2A4/GLUT4 vesicles.Synonyms: PARP5A, PARPL, TIN1, TINF1, TNKS, TNKS-1, TNKS1, TRF1-interacting ankyrin-related ADP-ribose polymerase, Tankyrase I
