Overview of Gene Research
Tnni3k, short for troponin I-interacting kinase, is a kinase mainly expressed in the heart. It has been implicated in multiple cardiac-related physiological processes, and human genetic variants in Tnni3k are associated with supraventricular arrhythmias, conduction disease, and cardiomyopathy [1,2,5]. Its role in cardiac-related pathways and overall biological importance lies in its potential influence on cardiac function, cell cycle regulation in cardiomyocytes, and heart regenerative capacity [1,3,4]. Genetic models, especially mouse models, have been crucial for studying Tnni3k.
In mouse studies, Tnni3k has been shown to influence cardiomyocyte S-phase activity and proliferation, indicating its role in the cell cycle of cardiomyocytes [3]. Tnni3k alleles also affect the frequency of ventricular mononuclear diploid cardiomyocytes, a proliferative and regenerative subpopulation of the postnatal heart [4]. Some common human TNNI3K kinase domain variants compromise kinase activity, suggesting implications for human heart regenerative capacity and disease [4].
In conclusion, Tnni3k plays essential roles in cardiac-related functions, especially in cardiomyocyte proliferation and the regulation of specific cardiomyocyte subpopulations. Mouse models, such as KO/CKO mouse models, have been instrumental in revealing these functions, contributing to our understanding of its role in cardiac diseases like cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, and potentially heart failure [1,2,3,4,5].
