Immunopharmacology Comments
Protein kinase, DNA-activated, catalytic polypeptide (DNA-PKcs) principally acts to repair DNA in a process called non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). NHEJ is required for V(D)J recombination (somatic recombination) in developing lymphocytes during the early stages of T and B cell maturation. DNA-PKcs knockout mice develop severe combined immunodeficiency as NHEJ is compromised and they are unable to construct the huge repertoire of antibodies and T cell receptors necessary for a fully developed adaptive immune response.

Disease:  Immunodeficiency 26 with or without neurologic abnormalities; IMD26
Synonyms: Severe combined immunodeficiency due to DNA-PKcs deficiency [Orphanet: ORPHA317425]
OMIM: 615966
Orphanet: ORPHA317425
General Comments
DNA-PKcs promotes endothelial dysfunction and myocardial microvascular damage in response to endotoxemia via phosphorylation of Thr25 of cofilin 2 (CFL2) which in turn leads to F-actin depolymerisation, loss of endothelial barrier integrity and microvascular inflammation [6].
