5 mutations responsible for mental retardation have been identified in p21-activated kinase 3 (pak3) gene. We recently identified in pak3, two highly conserved alternative exons called b and c. In addition to the classical PAK3a variant (without any alternative exon), the pak3 gene encodes 3 new splice variants PAK3b, PAK3c and PAK3cb which are constitutively active and insensitive to GTPase activation. Moreover, unlike PAK1 or PAK3a, their autoinhibitory domain is unable to inhibit a kinase domain. The aim of this project was to understand how PAK3 regulation occurs. A model of regulation was recently proposed in which PAK1 forms homodimers that can be dissociated through GTPase binding, leading to kinase activation. Given these observatio...
