PCTK1

Serine/threonine-protein kinase PCTAIRE-1 is an is_associated_with::enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PCTK1 is_associated_with::gene.

Function
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the cdc2/cdkx subfamily of the ser/thr family of protein kinases. It may play a role in signal transduction cascades in terminally differentiated cells. This gene is thought to escape X inactivation. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

Interactions
PCTK1 has been shown to interact with is_associated_with::CDK5R1.
