NUDT12 activators function through a variety of biochemical mechanisms that indirectly influence the activity of this specific nudix hydrolase. Some activators work by modulating intracellular second messenger levels, such as cAMP and cGMP, which activate protein kinases like PKA and PKG. These kinases are responsible for phosphorylating numerous proteins within the cell, a post-translational modification that could lead to the enhancement of NUDT12's enzymatic activity or influence its interaction with other cellular proteins. Other activators impact cellular metabolism and energy balance. For instance, compounds that stimulate AMPK can lead to a cascade of phosphorylation events that may affect NUDT12. This could involve changes in the metabolic signaling pathways that indirectly increase the functional activity of NUDT12 by altering the availability of substrates or cofactors necessary for its hydrolase activity.
Additionally, some NUDT12 activators exert their effects by influencing gene expression and protein modification processes. Certain molecules can induce DNA damage responses or modulate chromatin structure, potentially leading to an upregulation of repair pathways that could involve NUDT12. Activation of proteins such as SIRT1 by small molecules could result in altered acetylation patterns of proteins that interact with or regulate NUDT12, thereby modifying its activity. Furthermore, changes in lipid metabolism induced by fatty acids can affect the lipid microenvironment of NUDT12, potentially influencing its activity due to the enzyme's association with lipid substrates or membrane components.
