2. Association with Toxicity and/or Disease at a Transcriptional Level
- The expression of ANKRD23; DARP; MARP3 is up-regulated in the heart of KKA(y) mouse, a type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance model animal. Its expression is also altered by the change of energy supply induced by excess fatty acid treatment of skeletal myotube in vitro and fasting treatment of C57 mouse in vivo. [PMID: 12456686].
- ANKRD23 was downregulated in aorta ligation operated rats as compared with the sham operated rats. Differentially gene expression of ANKRD23 was associated with cardiac hypertrophy disease in Wistar rats [PMID: 27168795].
3. Summary of Protein Family and Structure
- Protein Accession: Q86SG2
- Size: 305 amino acids
- Molecular mass: 34297 Da
- Domains: Ankyrin_rpt, Ankyrin_rpt-contain_sf
- Family: a member of the muscle ankyrin repeat proteins (MARPs) family
- DARP contains a single coiled-coil domain at the N-terminus, followed by several conserved ankyrin-repeats towards the C-terminus. DARP contain potential coiled-coil dimerization motifs within their unique aminoterminal domains that mediate the formation of homo-dimers [PMID: 16450059]. DARP contains putative nuclear localization signals and four tandem ankyrin-like repeats [PMID: 12456686]. The C-terminus of MARPs contains a series of ankyrin repeats, whose best-characterized function is to bind to the N2A region of the giant sarcomeric protein titin [PMID: 14583192]. Binding of MARP to titin also affects its PKA mediated phosphorylation. MARPs themselves are phosphorylated by PKA and PKC, potentially altering their structure or function. The deregulation of ANKRD23 is associated with many cardiac and skeletal myopathies [PMID: 25125175, PMID: 20515317].

- KDM1A Lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A; Histone demethylase that can demethylate both 'Lys-4' (H3K4me) and 'Lys-9' (H3K9me) of histone H3, thereby acting as a coactivator or a corepressor, depending on the context. Acts by oxidizing the substrate by FAD to generate the corresponding imine that is subsequently hydrolyzed. Acts as a corepressor by mediating demethylation of H3K4me, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. Demethylates both mono- (H3K4me1) and di-methylated (H3K4me2) H3K4me. May play a role in the repression of neuronal genes. [PMID: 32296183]

The SPTLC1-SPTLC2-SPTSSA complex shows a strong preference for C16-CoA substrate, while the SPTLC1-SPTLC3-SPTSSA isozyme uses both C14-CoA and C16-CoA as substrates, with a slight preference for C14-CoA.

Increases the production of Th2-type cytokines by signaling via the JAK/STAT pathway. Activates STAT6 and inhibits STAT4 phosphorylation. Signaling via a not identified receptor seems to implicate IL4R and a GPI-anchored protein. [PMID: 32296183]

- DARP, along with other muscle ankyrin repeat proteins like CARP and Ankrd2, is upregulated in response to stress, including cardiac hypertrophy, which is the enlargement of the heart muscle due to increased workload or injury. [PMID: 24736439]
- Diabetes-related ankyrin repeat protein (DARP/Ankrd23) is expression is enhanced in the skeletal muscle under diabetic conditions due to its role in regulating glucose disposal in skeletal muscle by modulating AMPK activity [PMID: 26398569].
ANKRD23 encodes a protein that is part of the muscle ankyrin repeat proteins (MARP) family, specifically involved in muscle gene expression and energy metabolism [CS: 7]. It binds to the N2A region of titin, a giant sarcomeric protein, affecting its phosphorylation by PKA and is itself phosphorylated by PKA and PKC, which could alter its structure or function [CS: 6].
In heart-related diseases and toxicities, the expression of ANKRD23 is often dysregulated [CS: 7]. For instance, in cardiac hypertrophy, where the heart muscle enlarges due to increased workload or injury, ANKRD23 (DARP) is upregulated [CS: 7]. This upregulation likely serves to manage the increased mechanical stress on the heart muscle by modulating the structure and function of sarcomeric proteins like titin, thus maintaining the integrity and function of cardiac muscle cells [CS: 6]. Additionally, in conditions like type 2 diabetes, which can lead to altered energy metabolism in cardiac tissues, the expression of ANKRD23 is affected [CS: 6]. Its role in energy metabolism, particularly under diabetic conditions, suggests its involvement in adapting the heart muscle to altered energy states, possibly by influencing pathways like AMPK activity that are critical in cellular energy homeostasis [CS: 6]. This upregulation in response to stress or altered energy states seems to be a cellular mechanism to counteract the initial stressors, ensuring continued function and survival of cardiac cells under adverse conditions [CS: 7].
