Casein Kinase-2 Alpha-1 Polypeptide Definition
Casein Kinase 2, Alpha 1 Polypeptide is encoded by the CSNK2A1 gene. Casein kinase II is a serine/threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates acidic proteins such as casein. This kinase exists as a tetramer and is composed of an alpha, an alpha-prime, and two beta subunits. The alpha subunits contain the catalytic activity while the beta subunits undergo autophosphorylation. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.
