Background
There are approximately 40 known eukaryotic LIM proteins, so named for the LIM domains they contain. LIM domains are highly conserved cysteine-rich structures containing 2 zinc fingers. Although zinc fingers usually function by binding to DNA or RNA, the LIM motif probably mediates protein-protein interactions. LIM kinase-1 and LIM kinase-2 belong to a small subfamily with a unique combination of 2 N-terminal LIM motifs and a C-terminal protein kinase domain. The protein encoded by this gene is phosphorylated and activated by ROCK, a downstream effector of Rho, and the encoded protein, in turn, phosphorylates cofilin, inhibiting its actin-depolymerizing activity. It is thought that this pathway contributes to Rho-induced reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. At least three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function
catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,function:Displays serine/threonine-specific phosphorylation of myelin basic protein and histone (MBP) in vitro.,PTM:Phosphorylated on serine and/or threonine residues by ROCK1.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. TKL Ser/Thr protein kinase family.,similarity:Contains 1 PDZ (DHR) domain.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,similarity:Contains 2 LIM zinc-binding domains.,subcellular location:Isoform LIMK2a is distributed in the cytoplasm and the nucleus.,subcellular location:Isoform LIMK2b occurs mainly in the cytoplasm and is scarcely translocated to the nucleus.,subunit:Binds ROCK1 and LKAP. Interacts with PARD3. Interacts with NISCH.,tissue specificity:Highest expression in the placenta; moderate level in liver, lung, kidney, and pancreas. LIMK2a is found to be more abundant then LIMK2b in liver, col
