Chemical activators of testis expressed 47 can engage various cellular signaling pathways to modulate the protein's activity through phosphorylation. Forskolin, by elevating intracellular levels of cAMP, can activate protein kinase A (PKA), which may in turn phosphorylate testis expressed 47, altering its activity. Similarly, dibutyryl-cAMP, a membrane-permeable analog of cAMP, can also activate PKA and elicit the same effect on testis expressed 47. Ionomycin, through its role as a calcium ionophore, raises the intracellular concentration of calcium, which could activate calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinases capable of phosphorylating testis expressed 47. This process potentially engages testis expressed 47 in calcium-sensitive signaling pathways.
Further activation routes involve protein kinase C (PKC), which can be activated by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and, under certain conditions, by Bisindolylmaleimide I. PKC, once activated, could directly phosphorylate testis expressed 47 if it is a PKC substrate. The physiological response to insulin involves the activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway, where Akt kinase can phosphorylate a broad range of proteins, including possibly testis expressed 47. Similarly, the engagement of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) with its receptor can initiate the MAPK/ERK pathway, which might result in the phosphorylation and subsequent activation of testis expressed 47. Anisomycin, a known activator of MAPKs like JNK and p38, could also contribute to the phosphorylation state of testis expressed 47. Additionally, the inhibition of protein phosphatases PP1 and PP2A by compounds such as Okadaic Acid and Calyculin A may lead to the sustained phosphorylation and consequential activation of testis expressed 47. Lastly, the presence of zinc pyrithione can increase intracellular zinc levels, which may alter kinase and phosphatase activity, possibly resulting in the phosphorylation of testis expressed 47.
