CSNK1G3 casein kinase 1 gamma 3

Gene ID: 1456, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CSNK1G3L; CKI-gamma 3

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a family of serine/threonine protein kinases that phosphorylate caseins and other acidic proteins. A related protein in the African clawed frog participates in the transmission of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]
