sgk-1

Species
Caenorhabditis elegans
Symbol
sgk-1
Name
Serum- and Glucocorticoid- inducible Kinase homolog 1
Synonyms
  • CELE_W10G6.2
  • tag-74
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate binding activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including mesendoderm development; positive regulation of vitellogenesis; and regulation of protein localization to basolateral plasma membrane. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in intestine and neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension. Orthologous to several human genes including C8orf44-SGK3 (C8orf44-SGK3 readthrough); SGK2 (serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 2); and SGK3 (serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase family member 3).
WB Description
sgk-1 encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase that is orthologous to the mammalian serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinases (SGKs); in C. elegans, sgk-1 activity is required for normal egg laying, generation time, stress response, and adult life span; SGK-1 forms a complex with the AKT kinases with which it functions in parallel to mediate certain aspects of DAF-2/insulin-signaling; SGK-1 phosphorylates DAF-16 in vitro in a manner strictly dependent upon pdk-1 which encodes a 3-phosphoinositide-dependent kinase; an SGK-1::GFP fusion protein is expressed beginning in late embryonic stages and in larvae is seen in sensory and motor neurons as well as in the intestine; in neurons SGK-1::GFP localizes to the cytoplasm and the nucleus, while in the intestine SGK-1::GFP is found exclusively in the cytoplasm.
