Casein Kinase I Associates with Members of the Centaurin-α Family of Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-Trisphosphate-binding Proteins
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mammalian casein kinases I (CKI) belong to a family of serine/threonine protein kinases involved in diverse cellular processes including cell cycle progression, membrane trafficking, circadian rhythms, and Wnt signaling. Here we show that CKIalpha co-purifies with centaurin-alpha(1) in brain and that they interact in vitro and form a complex in cells. In addition, we show that the association is direct and occurs through the kinase domain of CKI within a loop comprising residues 217-233. These residues are well conserved in all members of the CKI family, and we show that centaurin-alpha(1) associates in vitro with all mammalian CKI isoforms. To date, CKIalpha represents the first protein partner identified for centaurin-alpha(1). However, our data suggest that centaurin-alpha(1) is not a substrate for CKIalpha and has no effect on CKIalpha activity. Centaurin-alpha(1) has been identified as a phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-binding protein. Centaurin-alpha(1) contains a cysteine-rich domain that is shared by members of a newly identified family of ADP-ribosylation factor guanosine trisphosphatase-activating proteins. These proteins are involved in membrane trafficking and actin cytoskeleton rearrangement, thus supporting a role for CKIalpha in these biological events.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
