Human ankyrin repeat and suppressor of cytokine signaling box protein 9 (hASB9) is a specific substrate-recognition subunit of an elongin C-cullin-SOCS box E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. It recognizes its substrate, brain type creatine kinase (CKB), using the ankyrin repeat domain; and facilitates the polyubiquitination of CKB to mediate proteasomal degradation through the SOCS box domain. HASB9-2 is an isoform of hASB9 that contains one ankyrin repeat domain. In this study, the crystal structure of hASB9-2 is shown at 2.2-Å resolution using molecular replacement. Overall, hASB9-2 forms a slightly curved arch with a characteristic L-shaped cross-section. Amino acid substitution analysis based on docking experiments revealed that His103 and Phe107 in hASB9-2 are essential for binding to CKB. Analysis of truncation mutants demonstrated that the first six ankyrin repeats along with the N-terminal region of hASB9-2 contribute to the interaction with CKB.

Background: Signaling pathways centered on the G-protein ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6) and its downstream effector ArfGAP with the SH3 Domain, Ankyrin Repeat and PH Domain 1 (AMAP1) drive cancer invasion, metastasis, and therapy resistance. The Arf6-AMAP1 pathway has been reported to promote receptor recycling leading to programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) overexpression in pancreatic ductal carcinoma. Moreover, AMAP1 regulates of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), which is an important molecule in inflammation and immune activation, including tumor immune interaction through PD-L1 regulation.

Ankyrin Repeat Domain-containing Protein 11 () is a causative gene for KBG syndrome, a significant risk factor for Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS), and a highly confident autism spectrum disorder gene. Mutations of lead to developmental abnormalities in multiple organs/tissues including the brain, craniofacial and skeletal bones, and tooth structures with unknown mechanism(s). Here, we find that ANKRD11, via a short peptide fragment in its N-terminal region, binds to the cohesin complex with a high affinity, implicating why mutation can cause CdLS.

Introduction: Ankyrin repeat domain 27 (ANKRD27) has been found to be associated with certain cancers. However, its clinical potential in pan-cancer remains unclear.
Methods: Public datasets (TCGA and GTEx) were applied to analyze ANKRD27 expression in multiple cancer types and its correlations with immune scores, immune checkpoint genes, and immune modulatory genes.

The receptor tyrosine kinase EphB4 is involved in tumor angiogenesis, proliferation, and metastasis. Designed ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPins) binding to the EphB4 extracellular domain were identified from a combinatorial library using phage display. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) allowed us to distinguish between DARPins that either compete with the EphB4 ligand ephrin-B2 for binding to a common site or target a different epitope.

Orthoflaviviruses are positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses that hijack host proteins to promote their own replication. Zika virus (ZIKV) is infamous among orthoflaviviruses for its association with severe congenital birth defects, notably microcephaly. We previously mapped ZIKV-host protein interactions and identified the interaction between ZIKV non-structural protein 4A (NS4A) and host microcephaly protein ankyrin repeat and LEM domain-containing 2 (ANKLE2).
