serine/threonine protein kinase BRSK2; brain-specific serine/threonine protein kinase 2; BR serine/threonine protein kinase 2; serine/threonine protein kinase 29; serine/threonine protein kinase SAD-A (BRSK2, C11orf7, PEN11B, SADA, STK29, HUSSY-12)
Function:
- serine/threonine protein kinase
- role in polarization of neurons
- phosphorylates MAPT/TAU & WEE1 following phosphorylation & activation by STK11/LKB1
- regulator of polarization of cortical neurons, probably by mediating phosphorylation of microtubule-associated proteins such as MAPT/TAU at Ser-579
- also regulates neuron polarization by phosphorylation of WEE1 at Ser-642, down-regulating WEE1 in polarized neurons
- activated by phosphorylation on Thr-174 by STK11/LKB1
- phosphorylated on Ser-416
- phosphorylated at Thr-174 by STK11/LKB1 in complex with STE20-related adapter-alpha (STRADA) pseudo kinase & CAB39
- not phosphorylated at Thr-174 by CaMKK2
- in contrast, it is phosphorylated & activated by CaMKK1
- may be inactivated via dephosphorylation of Thr-174 by PP2C
- may be phosphorylated at Thr-260 by PKA
Cofactor: Mg+2 (putative)
Structure:
- belongs to the protein kinase superfamily, CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family, SNF1 subfamily
- contains 1 protein kinase domain
- contains 1 UBA domain
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=5
