Reaction: CDK5:p25 phosphorylates PRDX2
- in pathway: Deregulated CDK5 triggers multiple neurodegenerative pathways in Alzheimer's disease models
Oxidative stress, manifested through accumulation of reactive oxygen species in the cell, is one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease. Based on mouse model studies, CDK5, aberrantly activated by binding to p25, phosphorylates the peroxide reductase PRDX2 on a conserved threonine residue T89, thus inactivating it and contributing to ROS accumulation (Sun et al. 2008).
