Syne-4 activators primarily work by influencing the phosphorylation status of proteins involved in actin cytoskeleton organization, a process in which Syne-4 plays a significant role. Several of these activators, including Forskolin and IBMX, increase cAMP levels in cells, which subsequently activate protein kinase A (PKA). Activated PKA can phosphorylate proteins involved in actin cytoskeleton organization, indirectly enhancing the activity of Syne-4. Anisomycin, another activator, triggers the stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK)/JNK pathway, which is involved in actin cytoskeleton organization, indirectly enhancing Syne-4's function. Dibutyryl-cAMP, a membrane-permeable cAMP analogue, achieves a similar effect by activating PKA.
Certain Syne-4 activators work by inhibiting protein phosphatases and maintaining the phosphorylation status of proteins involved in the actin cytoskeleton organization. Okadaic acid and Calyculin A inhibit protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, thereby indirectly maintaining the active state of Syne-4 and enhancing its role in the process. Cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of calcineurin, a phosphatase, accomplishes a similar function. Other activators, like H-89, Staurosporine, Rapamycin, and Lithium Chloride, influence different kinases that can affect the phosphorylation of proteins involved in actin cytoskeleton organization, indirectly enhancing the role of Syne-4 in this process.
