Catalytic domain of the Dual-specificity Protein Kinase, Dusty Dual-specificity PKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine as well as tyrosine residues on protein substrates. Dusty protein kinase is also called Receptor-interacting protein kinase 5 (RIPK5 or RIP5) or RIP-homologous kinase. It is widely distributed in the central nervous system, and may be involved in inducing both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent cell death. The Dusty subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of other protein serine/threonine PKs, protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase.
