AHP1712T recognises human BR serine-threonine kinase 1 (BRSK1), a cytoplasmic and nuclear protein belonging to the protein kinase super family.
BRSK1 is a widely expressed protein, with highest levels being detected in the brain and testis. It is essential for the polarization forebrain neurones which results in the distinct properties of axons and dendrites.
Research suggests that BRSK1 is involved in the regulation of G2/M arrest and functions as a checkpoint kinase following UV- or methyl methane sulfonate (but not IR-) induced DNA damage. BRSK1 phosphorylates WEE1 and CDC25Bin vitroand CDC25Cin vitroandin vivo.
Multiple isoforms of BRSK1 have been identified.
