CK1 gamma-1 Proteins

Protein Information

Casein kinase I (also designated CKI) and casein kinase II (also designated CKII) compose a family of serine/ threonine protein kinases which are present in all eukaryotes examined to date. CKI family members, which include CKI alpha, gamma, epsilon and delta, have been implicated in the control of cytoplasmic and nuclear processes, including DNA replication and repair. CKII is usually expressed as a tetrameric complex consisting of either an alpha2 beta2 or an alpha alpha' beta2 structure. The alpha catalytic subunit is stimulated by the beta regulatory subunit, which undergoes autophosphorylation. CKII activity is high in the cytosol and nucleus of proliferating and differentiating cells. CKII is known to phosphorylate more than 100 different substrates including nuclear oncoproteins, transcription factors and enzymes involved in DNA metabolism.
