Function | Serine/threonine protein kinase that plays a role in the regulation of gene transcription. The kinase activity is induced by various effectors including AR or MAP2K6/MAPKK6. Phosphorylates the DNA-binding domain of androgen receptor/AR and thereby inhibits AR- mediated transcription. Inhibits also ESR1-mediated transcription. May play a role in cytoskeleton regulation by interacting with IQGAP1. May protect cells from apoptosis through phosphorylation of BAD. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Cotranslocates into nucleus with AR in response to androgen induction |
Tissue Location | Selectively expressed in brain and testis, with lower levels in multiple tissues including prostate and breast |

Background
Serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 6(p21 Protein-activated Kinase 6) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PAK6 gene. The PAK6 gene is mapped to chromosome 15q15. based on an alignment of the PAK6 sequence with the genomic sequence. This gene encodes a protein that shares a high degree of sequence similarity with p21-activated kinase(PAK) family members. The proteins of this family are Rac/Cdc42-associated Ste20-like Ser/Thr protein kinases, characterized by a highly conserved amino-terminal Cdc42/Rac interactive binding(CRIB) domain and a carboxyl-terminal kinase domain. PAK kinases are implicated in the regulation of a number of cellular processes, including cytoskeleton rearrangement, apoptosis and the MAP kinase signaling pathway. The protein encoded by this gene was found to interact with androgen receptor(AR), which is a steroid hormone-dependent transcription factor that is important for male sexual differentiation and development. The p21-activated protein kinase 6 gene was found to be highly expressed in testis and prostate tissues and the encoded protein was shown to cotranslocate into the nucleus with AR in response to androgen.
