NM23A also known as NME1 (non-metastatic cells 1 protein) is a nucleoside diphosphate kinase A. NM23A weighs approximately 17 kDa. This protein is expressed in a variety of tissues with high levels in liver brain and endocrine tissues. By exchanging phosphate groups NM23A is involved in energy transfer in cells. It stabilizes proteins by forming hexameric complexes which are pivotal for its function.
Biological function summary
The NME1 protein plays a significant role in cell proliferation and differentiation. It acts as a marker for the metastatic potential of some tumors where lower expression links to increased metastatic abilities in tumor cells. This protein sometimes works as part of a larger multiprotein complex which influences its functions in cellular processes. It is known for modulating microtubule assembly which affects cell structure and mechanics.
Pathways
NM23A is an important player in signal transduction and DNA repair pathways. It is essential in the regulation of the Ras-MAPK pathway which controls cell growth and differentiation. NM23A interacts with key regulatory proteins such as c-Myc and APC to uphold cellular activities. The protein's influence in these pathways indicates its role in sustaining normal cellular functions and responses.
NM23A relates closely to cancer particularly in metastatic processes and tumor progression. Lower levels of NM23A are associated with the progression of neuroblastoma and breast cancer. In breast cancer NM23A links to the tumor suppressor gene p53 affecting its regulatory functions. Research continues into how NM23A can serve as a useful biomarker for prognosis and therapy in cancer treatment.
