Chemical activators of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13 can initiate a range of biochemical pathways leading to its functional activation. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate activates protein kinase C (PKC), a family of enzymes that play a key role in the regulation of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13 through phosphorylation, leading to cellular responses. Forskolin, by increasing intracellular cAMP levels, triggers the activation of protein kinase A (PKA), which in turn can phosphorylate kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13, altering its activity. Similarly, dibutyryl-cAMP, a cAMP analog, activates PKA, thereby promoting the phosphorylation and activation of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13. Ionomycin, by increasing intracellular calcium levels, can activate calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases, which may target kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13 for phosphorylation and subsequent activation.
In addition to these activators, Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) engages its receptor tyrosine kinase, initiating a cascade that can lead to the phosphorylation of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13. Zinc sulfate serves as a second messenger that can activate kinases which phosphorylate kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13. Hydrogen peroxide, through oxidative mechanisms, can modify signaling pathways and thus, the redox state of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13, influencing its function. Thapsigargin disrupts calcium homeostasis and can also lead to the activation of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13 via calcium-dependent phosphorylation mechanisms. Inhibitors like calyculin A and okadaic acid, which inhibit protein phosphatases, prevent the dephosphorylation of proteins including kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13, thus maintaining it in an activated state. Lastly, Bisindolylmaleimide I, although primarily a PKC inhibitor, at low concentrations can paradoxically activate PKC, and hence, can indirectly promote the activation of kelch repeat and BTB domain containing 13 through phosphorylation events.
