General description

Tankyrase-1/TNKS is a critical enzyme in Wnt signaling pathway. Tankyrase-1/TNKS is a poly-ADP-ribosyltransferase which is a key mediator of PARsylation: Becoming ADP-ribosylated. PARsylation is important in Wnt signaling because ADP-ribosylation of AXIN1 and AXIN2, two key components of the beta catenin destruction complex, is necessary for destruction via RNF146 (an ubiquitin lyase) and ubiquitination and subsequent destruction of beta catenin. Tankyrase-1/TNKS also mediates PARsylation of TERF1 and thus is important in controlling telomere length, and Tankyrase-1/TNKS’s PARsylation of other proteins makes Tankyrase-1/TNKS important in vesicle trafficking and subcellular protein distribution as well. Tankyrase-1/TNKS is widely expressed, and is found mostly cytoplasmically but can be associated with the nucleus and spindles and Golgi complexes as well.
