Background
Summary:This gene belongs to the casein kinase 1 superfamily. The encoded protein is a neuron-specific, serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase, which regulates phosphorylation of tau, a protein that associates with microtubule assemblies and stabilizes them. Genetic variants in this gene are associated with Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016],
Function
catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,caution:It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-14 is the initiator.,cofactor:Divalent cations. Magnesium or, to a lesser extent, manganese, but not calcium or zinc.,function:Serine/threonine kinase which is able to phosphorylate TAU on serine, threonine and tyrosine residues. Induces aggregation of TAU.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CK1 Ser/Thr protein kinase family.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed in the brain, particularly in cortical and hippocampal neurons. Weakly expressed in spinal cord and testis. No expression in adipose tissue, bladder, cervix, colon, esophagus, heart, kidney, liver, lung, ovary, placenta, prostate, skeletal muscle, small intestine, spleen, testis, thymus, thyroid or trachea.,
