General annotation (Comments)

Function

Serine/threonine kinase that phosphorylates 'Thr-18' of p53/TP53 and may thereby prevent the interaction between p53/TP53 and MDM2. Ref.3

Catalytic activity

ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.

Enzyme regulation

Active in presence of Mn2+, Mg2+ and Zn2+, but is not functional with Ca2+ or Cu2+. Has a higher affinity for Mn2+ than for Mg2+. Ref.4

Subcellular location

Nucleus. Note: Dispersed throughout the cell but not located on mitotic spindle or chromatids during mitosis. Ref.3

Tissue specificity

Widely expressed. Highly expressed in fetal liver, testis and thymus. Ref.1

Post-translational modification

Autophosphorylated at various serine and threonine residues. Autophosphorylation does not impair its ability to phosphorylate p53/TP53. Ref.3 Ref.4

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CK1 Ser/Thr protein kinase family. VRK subfamily.

Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
