CSNK1A1 casein kinase 1 alpha 1

Gene ID: 1452, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CK1; CK1a; CKIa; HLCDGP1; PRO2975; HEL-S-77p

Summary

Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; peptidyl-serine phosphorylation; and positive regulation of proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Located in centrosome; cytosol; and nuclear speck. Part of beta-catenin destruction complex. Colocalizes with keratin filament and mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor complex. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease and inclusion body myositis. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
