ILKs (Integrin-linked kinases) in combination with integrins and growth factors regulate cell survival,cell cycle,cell-cell adhesion and cell motility. ILK functions as a scaffold bridging the extra-cellular matrix (ECM) and growth factor receptors to the actin cytoskeleton throμgh interactions with integrin,PINCH (which links ILK to the RTKs via Nck2),CH-ILKBP and affixin. ILK phosphorylates several cellular targets including Akt,GSK-3,myosin light chain 2,as well as affixin. These phosphorylation events are key regulatory steps in modulating the activities of the targets.
