Background

p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1) is a member of a family of serine/threonine protein kinase defined by their interaction with the small GTPases, Cdc42 and Rac (1-2). The PAK proteins can be essentially divided into two categories, groups I (PAK1, PAK2 and PAK3) and group II (PAK4, PAK5 and PAK6), based on their structures (3). PAK1 participates in regulating the actin cytoskeleton, focal adhesion contacts, cell motility, apoptosis and transcription. It also promotes the disassembly of stress fibers (4-5). PAK1 also binds PIX (PAK-binding protein), COOL and adapter protein Nck (5).
