| مستخلص: | Tetratricopeptide repeats (TPRs) are loosely conserved 34-amino acid sequence motifs that have been shown to function as scaffolding structures to mediate protein-protein interactions. TPRs have been identified in a number of proteins with diverse functions and cellular locations. Recent studies suggest that individual TPR motifs can confer specificity in promoting homotypic and/or heterotypic interactions, often in a mutually exclusive manner. These features are best exemplified by the P58IPK protein, an influenza virus-activated cellular inhibitor of the PKR protein kinase, whose different TPR motifs mediate interactions with distinct proteins. P58IPK, which possesses cochaperone and oncogenic properties, represents a unique class of TPR proteins containing a J-domain. Here we review recent progress on the structural and functional characterization of P58IPK, and discuss the possible mechanisms by which P58IPK modulates PKR and induces tumorigenesis in view of present knowledge of TPR proteins and molecular chaperones.
