Casein Kinase 1 Alpha-1 Definition

Casein Kinase 1, Alpha 1, encoded by the human CSNK1A1 gene, is a serine/threonine protein kinase and has broad specificity. Casein kinases are operationally defined by their preferential utilization of acidic proteins such as caseins as substrates. This cytoplasmic protein can phosphorylate a large number of proteins. (From LocusLink, Swiss-Prot and NCI)
