PWWP domain found in protein kinase C-binding protein 1 (PRKCBP1) and similar proteins
PRKCBP1, also called cutaneous T-cell lymphoma-associated antigen se14-3 (CTCL-associated antigen se14-3), Rack7, or zinc finger MYND domain-containing protein 8 (ZMYND8), is a novel receptor for activated C-kinase (RACK)-like protein that may play an important role in the activation and regulation of PKC-beta I, and the PKC signaling cascade. It also has been identified as a formin homology-2-domain containing protein 1 (FHOD1)-binding protein that may be involved in FHOD1-regulated actin polymerization and transcription. Moreover, PRKCBP1 may function as a REST co-repressor 2 (RCOR2) interacting factor. They form a RCOR2/ZMYND8 complex which might be involved in the regulation of neural differentiation. PRKCBP1 contains a plant homeodomain (PHD) finger, a bromodomain, and a proline-tryptophan-tryptophan-proline (PWWP) domain. The PWWP domain specifically recognizes DNA and histone methylated lysines.
