PKMYT1 protein kinase, membrane associated tyrosine/threonine 1

Gene ID: 9088, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MYT1; PPP1R126

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. The encoded protein is a membrane-associated kinase that negatively regulates the G2/M transition of the cell cycle by phosphorylating and inactivating cyclin-dependent kinase 1. The activity of the encoded protein is regulated by polo-like kinase 1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
