CSK (C-terminal Src kinase) is a cytosolic non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase built from an SH3 domain, an SH2 domain and a kinase domain, lacking both a membrane-anchoring acylation signal and an activation-loop autophosphorylation site. Its main substrates are the C-terminal regulatory tyrosines of Src-family kinases (SRC, LCK, FYN, LYN, YES1, HCK); phosphorylation of this tail lets the kinase's own SH2 domain bind it intramolecularly, locking the kinase in an inactive conformation. Substrate selection relies on a docking interface between the two kinase domains rather than the conventional peptide-binding groove. CSK is recruited from the cytosol to membranes and lipid rafts by SH2 binding to tyrosine-phosphorylated adaptors and receptors (PAG/Cbp, SCIMP, activated IGF-1R/insulin receptor), and its SH3 domain binds the phosphatase PTPN22 (PEP), coordinating Src-family kinase inactivation. Through these activities CSK restrains T- and B-cell antigen receptor, Fc receptor and growth-factor signalling. Csk orthologs are present in choanoflagellates and other unicellular holozoans, where they phosphorylate the Src C-terminal tail; whether that phosphorylation was already strongly inhibitory before animals is disputed, while the adaptor-based recruitment and immune-signalling roles are animal-specific contexts.

This EXP row is supported by direct kinase assays. Reason: Direct biochemical evidence of CSK tyrosine kinase activity on Src-family kinase tails or test substrates. Core activity. Supporting Evidence: PMID:9281320 we show that the enzyme is inactivated by incubation with protein tyrosine kinase Csk in an ATP-Mg-dependent manner, indicating that cellular Yes can be regulated by Csk phosphorylation |

Reason: The MF itself is correct for CSK regardless of how important PD-1 is as a substrate; CSK substrate specificity is largely restricted to SFK tails by a docking mechanism (PMID:18614016), so PD-1 is at most a minor substrate. Supporting Evidence: PMID:18614016 it is remarkable that the C-terminal tails of the Src family kinases are the only known targets of Csk |

CSK lacks transmembrane and signal sequences and is a cytosolic tyrosine kinase. Reason: Most precise MF term for CSK and phylogenetically well placed; the activity is in fact older than Bilateria (choanoflagellate Csk orthologs are active tyrosine kinases; PMID:18390552, PMID:16873552). Core function.

Reason: Generic protein binding is uninformative about molecular function. The PAG-CSK interaction is real and functionally important (membrane recruitment of CSK), but the abstract does not itself define the binding mode; the recruitment is captured by plasma membrane / membrane raft localisation and by the phosphotyrosine residue binding term supported elsewhere. REMOVE does not mean the interaction is false; it means GO:0005515 conveys no function.

Reason: Generic protein binding is uninformative about molecular function. This is an enzyme-substrate docking interface that explains CSK specificity; it is represented by the kinase activity terms rather than a binding term. REMOVE does not mean the interaction is false; it means GO:0005515 conveys no function. Supporting Evidence: PMID:18614016 Csk cannot phosphorylate substrates that lack this docking mechanism because the conventional substrate binding site used by most tyrosine kinases to recognize substrates is destabilized in Csk by a deletion in the activation loop |

| GO:0006468 protein phosphorylation | TAS PMID:1945408 cyl encodes a putative cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase lacking t... | ACCEPT | Summary: TAS from the cloning paper. Reason: CSK phosphorylates proteins; general but correct. More informative terms are present. Supporting Evidence: PMID:1639064 Here we characterize a human cytosolic 50 kDa protein tyrosine kinase, p50csk, which specifically phosphorylates Tyr-505 of p56lck and a synthetic peptide containing this site |
| GO:0008285 negative regulation of cell population proliferation | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (IDA, adenoviral Csk overexpression in arthritic synovium). Reason: Csk suppresses SFK-driven proliferation and transformation; pleiotropic downstream consequence of SFK inhibition rather than a direct CSK process. |
| GO:0010989 negative regulation of low-density lipoprotein particle clearance | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (IDA in Csk-transfected J774 macrophages). Reason: Overexpression-based downstream phenotype; no evidence that CSK has a specific role in LDL particle clearance. |
| GO:0019903 protein phosphatase binding | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | ACCEPT | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (IPI with PEP/PTPN22). Reason: The CSK SH3 domain binds the phosphatase PEP/PTPN22; this pairing coordinates SFK inactivation. Supporting Evidence: PMID:8890164 this interaction was mediated by the Csk SH3 domain and by a proline-rich region (PPPLPERTP) in the non-catalytic C-terminal portion of PEP |
| GO:0031295 T cell costimulation | TAS Reactome:R-HSA-388841 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: Reactome pathway "Regulation of T cell activation by CD28 family" (PD-1 phosphorylation). Reason: CSK is not a component of costimulatory signalling; its role in this Reactome pathway is inhibitory phosphorylation of PD-1/SFKs. The process is better represented by negative regulation of T cell receptor signaling pathway. Supporting Evidence: PMID:8890164 We previously showed that Csk is a potent negative regulator of antigen receptor signaling in T lymphocytes |
| GO:0032715 negative regulation of interleukin-6 production | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (overexpression in arthritic synovium). Reason: Indirect overexpression phenotype; no specific role in IL-6 production. |
| GO:0034236 protein kinase A catalytic subunit binding | IPI PMID:17911601 Inhibition of T cell activation by cyclic adenosine 5'-monop... | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: CSK co-immunoprecipitates with the PKA catalytic subunit in a T-cell raft complex; PKA phosphorylates CSK Ser-364. Reason: Real, specific interaction, but it reflects CSK being a PKA substrate/regulatory target rather than a CSK function. Supporting Evidence: PMID:17911601 which in turn phosphorylates and activates C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) in T cell lipid rafts |
| GO:0034332 adherens junction organization | IBA GO_REF:0000033 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IBA from PTN002815304 (Euteleostomi node), seeded only by rat Csk (RGD:1308800), whose own annotation is IEP (expression in rat seminiferous epithelium). Reason: SFK regulation at adherens junctions is plausible in animal epithelia, but the seed is expression-based and CSK does not organise junctions directly. Animal-specific context; keep as non-core. |
| GO:0034332 adherens junction organization | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (IEP). Reason: As for the IBA row: plausible animal-specific context, weak evidence. |
| GO:0035556 intracellular signal transduction | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | ACCEPT | Summary: IEA from mouse Csk. Reason: CSK is a signalling kinase acting in intracellular signal transduction; general but correct. Supporting Evidence: PMID:10790433 the PAG-Csk complex transmits negative regulatory signals and thus may help to keep resting T cells in a quiescent state |
| GO:0042802 identical protein binding | IPI PMID:19888460 The tyrosine kinase Csk dimerizes through Its SH3 domain. | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: CSK homodimerizes through its SH3 domain. Reason: Biophysically demonstrated, but the physiological role of the dimer is unclear. Supporting Evidence: PMID:19888460 We have discovered that Csk forms homodimers through interactions mediated by the SH3 domain in a manner that buries the recognition surface for SH3 ligands |
| GO:0042997 negative regulation of Golgi to plasma membrane protein transport | IDA PMID:20605918 The Lyn kinase C-lobe mediates Golgi export of Lyn through c... | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: CSK-induced closed conformation of Lyn blocks ACSL3-dependent Golgi export of Lyn. Reason: Experimentally supported but specific to Lyn trafficking; a consequence of SFK closure by CSK. Supporting Evidence: PMID:20605918 Formation of a closed conformation by CSK prevents Lyn from associating with ACSL3, resulting in blockade of Lyn export from the Golgi |
| GO:0045779 negative regulation of bone resorption | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (IDA, adenoviral Csk in osteoclasts). Reason: Csk inhibition of Src in osteoclasts is mechanistically plausible; tissue-specific, animal-specific process. |
| GO:0048709 oligodendrocyte differentiation | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: IEA from rat Csk, whose source annotation is IEP (expression change during oligodendrocyte development). Reason: Expression-pattern evidence does not show participation in oligodendrocyte differentiation. |
| GO:0050765 negative regulation of phagocytosis | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (IDA, Csk-transfected macrophages). Reason: Supported independently in human cells: CSK activity inhibits SFK-dependent Fc-gamma-R phagocytosis. Supporting Evidence: PMID:24902122 LspA virulence factors of H. ducreyi inhibit phagocytosis by stimulating the catalytic activity of C-terminal Src kinase (Csk), which itself inhibits Src family protein tyrosine kinases (SFKs) that promote phagocytosis |
| GO:0050776 regulation of immune response | IEA GO_REF:0000117 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: ARBA machine-learning rule. Reason: CSK is a negative regulator of immune receptor signalling; correct but broad. Supporting Evidence: PMID:8890164 We previously showed that Csk is a potent negative regulator of antigen receptor signaling in T lymphocytes |
| GO:0050852 T cell receptor signaling pathway | TAS Reactome:R-HSA-202403 | MODIFY | Summary: Reactome TCR signaling. Reason: CSK acts as an inhibitor of TCR signalling; the more precise term is negative regulation of T cell receptor signaling pathway. Proposed replacements: negative regulation of T cell receptor signaling pathway Supporting Evidence: PMID:8890164 We previously showed that Csk is a potent negative regulator of antigen receptor signaling in T lymphocytes PMID:1639064 Phosphorylation of Tyr-505 suppressed the catalytic activity of p56lck |
| GO:0050860 negative regulation of T cell receptor signaling pathway | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | ACCEPT | Summary: IEA from mouse Csk (IMP). Reason: Well established: CSK inactivates Lck/Fyn and, with PAG and PEP/PTPN22, restrains TCR signalling. Supporting Evidence: PMID:8890164 We previously showed that Csk is a potent negative regulator of antigen receptor signaling in T lymphocytes PMID:10790433 the PAG-Csk complex transmits negative regulatory signals and thus may help to keep resting T cells in a quiescent state |
| GO:0050868 negative regulation of T cell activation | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from mouse Csk. Reason: Correct downstream consequence of inhibiting TCR signalling. Supporting Evidence: PMID:10790433 the PAG-Csk complex transmits negative regulatory signals and thus may help to keep resting T cells in a quiescent state |
| GO:0051239 regulation of multicellular organismal process | IEA GO_REF:0000117 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: ARBA rule, regulation of multicellular organismal process. Reason: Extremely broad, uninformative grouping term. |
| GO:0060368 regulation of Fc receptor mediated stimulatory signaling pathway | IBA GO_REF:0000033 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IBA from PTN002815304, seeded by rat Csk IDA in FcepsilonRI signalling. Reason: CSK regulates SFK-initiated Fc receptor signalling in mast cells/immune cells; animal-specific context. |
| GO:0060368 regulation of Fc receptor mediated stimulatory signaling pathway | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk. Reason: As for the IBA row. |
| GO:0070062 extracellular exosome | HDA PMID:19056867 Large-scale proteomics and phosphoproteomics of urinary exos... | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: Urinary exosome proteomics. Reason: Large-scale detection of a cytosolic protein in exosomes; not a functional location. |
| GO:0070064 proline-rich region binding | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | ACCEPT | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (PEP proline-rich region binding by SH3). Reason: Directly supported by the SH3-PEP mapping. Supporting Evidence: PMID:8890164 this interaction was mediated by the Csk SH3 domain and by a proline-rich region (PPPLPERTP) in the non-catalytic C-terminal portion of PEP |
| GO:0070373 negative regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk (FcepsilonRI study). Reason: Downstream consequence of SFK inhibition. |
| GO:0071375 cellular response to peptide hormone stimulus | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: IEA from rat Csk. Reason: Response-to-stimulus annotation without evidence of a specific CSK role in peptide hormone responses beyond SH2 binding to activated IGF-1R/IR. |
| GO:1990782 protein tyrosine kinase binding | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: IEA from rat Csk. Reason: CSK binds its SFK substrates via a docking interface and binds activated receptor tyrosine kinases via its SH2 domain; correct but adds little beyond kinase activity. Supporting Evidence: PMID:18614016 Csk cannot phosphorylate substrates that lack this docking mechanism because the conventional substrate binding site used by most tyrosine kinases to recognize substrates is destabilized in Csk by a deletion in the activation loop |
| GO:0061099 negative regulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity | IDA PMID:1639064 The human p50csk tyrosine kinase phosphorylates p56lck at Ty... | NEW | Summary: CSK directly catalyses the inhibitory phosphorylation of the Src-family kinase C-terminal tail, suppressing their kinase activity. Reason: Participation test: CSK itself performs the regulatory step (phosphorylation of Lck Tyr-505, Yes inactivation). Not redundant with existing process rows, which describe downstream signalling consequences. The term is sparsely used in GO (e.g. SRCIN1, PTK6), so the comparator check gives no convention against it. Supporting Evidence: PMID:1639064 Phosphorylation of Tyr-505 suppressed the catalytic activity of p56lck PMID:9281320 we show that the enzyme is inactivated by incubation with protein tyrosine kinase Csk in an ATP-Mg-dependent manner, indicating that cellular Yes can be regulated by Csk phosphorylation |
| GO:0045121 membrane raft | IDA PMID:17911601 Inhibition of T cell activation by cyclic adenosine 5'-monop... | NEW | Summary: CSK is recruited to lipid rafts by phosphorylated PAG/Cbp and is activated there by PKA. Reason: Raft localisation is where CSK meets its membrane-anchored SFK substrates; supported in T cells. Supporting Evidence: PMID:17911601 which in turn phosphorylates and activates C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) in T cell lipid rafts PMID:10790433 Expression of PAG in COS cells results in recruitment of endogenous Csk, altered Src kinase activity, and impaired phosphorylation of Src-specific substrates |

Download this section (compressed HTML)Q: Did Csk phosphorylation inhibit Src before animals? Monosiga ovata and M. brevicollis studies (PMID:16873552, PMID:18390552) found weak or no inhibition of choanoflagellate Src, whereas a later yeast/in vitro study (PMID:28939764) reported inhibition for Capsaspora and M. brevicollis proteins. Which assay conditions explain the difference?
Q: Do unicellular holozoans have any functional equivalent of PAG/Cbp or other phosphotyrosine adaptors that recruit Csk to membranes, or is adaptor-based Csk recruitment an animal innovation?
Q: Should the PANTHER IBD of adherens junction organization at PTN002815304, seeded only by an expression-pattern (IEP) annotation of rat Csk, be revisited?
Q: Is SH3-mediated CSK homodimerization (PMID:19888460) physiologically relevant for regulating PTPN22 recruitment in cells?
Experiment: Side-by-side kinetic comparison of human, Monosiga and Capsaspora Csk acting on their cognate and on human Src, using identical purified proteins and both in vitro and SYF-cell assays, to resolve whether tail phosphorylation was inhibitory before animals.
Experiment: Knockout of Csk in Salpingoeca rosetta or Capsaspora owczarzaki, measuring Src activity and colony/aggregate phenotypes, to test whether Csk has a role in premetazoan multicellular stages.
Experiment: Proximity labelling of CSK in human T cells with and without PAG1/SCIMP to map adaptor-dependent CSK localisation and substrates beyond Src-family kinases.
