NAD(P)HX dehydratase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NAXD gene (previously CARKD). The NAXD protein is a ATP-dependent NAD(P)H-hydrate dehydratase enzyme that is involved in repairing NAD(P)HX, a type of damaged NAD(P)H.^[6]

Gene

Human CARKD gene has 10 exons and resides on Chromosome 13 at q34. The following genes are near CARKD on the chromosome:^[7]

COL4A2: A2 Subunit of type IV collagen
RAB20: Potential regulator of Connexin 43 trafficking.
CARS2: Mitochondrial Cystienyl-tRNA Synthetase 2
ING1: Tumor-Suppressor Protein

Tissue distribution

CARKD appears to be ubiquitously expressed at high levels. Expression data in the human protein, and the mouse ortholog, indicate its expression in almost all tissues.^[8]^[9] One peculiar expression pattern of CARKD is its differential expression through the development of oligodendrocytes. Its expression is lower in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells than in mature oligodendrocytes.^[10]

Structure

This protein is part of the phosphomethylpyrimidine kinase: ribokinase / pfkB superfamily. This family is characterized by the presence of a domain shared by the family.^[11] CARKD contains a carbohydrate kinase domain (Pfam PF01256).^[11] This family is related to Pfam PF02210 and Pfam PF00294 implying that it also is a carbohydrate kinase.

Predicted properties

The following properties of CARKD were predicted using bioinformatic analysis:

Molecular Weight: 41.4 KDal^[12]
Isoelectric point: 9.377^[13]
- CARKD orthologs have highly variable isoelectric points.^[13]
Post-translational modification: Three post-translational modifications are predicted:
- Modified Phosphotyrosine Residue^[14]
- Two N-Linked Glycosylation Sites^[14]
A Signal Peptide and signal peptide cleavage site was predicted.^[15]

Binding partners

The human protein apolipoprotein A-1 binding precursor (APOA1BP) was predicted to be a binding partner for CARKD.^[16] This prediction is based on co-occurrence across genomes and co-expression. In addition to these data, the orthologs of CARKD in E. coli contain a domain similar to APOA1BP. This indicates that the two proteins are likely to have originated from a common evolutionary ancestor and, according to Rosetta stone analysis theory,^[17] are likely interaction partners even in species such as humans where the two proteins are not produced as a single polypeptide.

Clinical significance

Based on allele-specific expression of CARKD, CARKD may play a role in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.^[18] In addition, microarray data indicates that CARKD is up-regulated in Glioblastoma multiforme tumors.^[19]

Mutations of the NAXD gene cause the rare disease early-onset progressive encephalopathy with brain edema and/or leukoencephalopathy-2 (PEBEL2).
