Product Overview
Reactivity
Human (predicted: Rat)
Target Information
Alternative Names
Highly similar to cell cycle protein kinase CDC5/MSD2; NEK6; NEK6_HUMAN; Never in mitosis A-related kinase 6; NIMA (Never In Mitosis Gene A) Related Kinase 6; NimA related protein kinase 6; NimA-related protein kinase 6; Protein kinase SID6 1512; Protein kinase SID6-1512; Putative serine threonine protein kinase; Serine/threonine protein kinase Nek6; Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek6; SID6 1512; SID61512
Function
Activated during M phase. Required for chromosome segregation at metaphase-anaphase transition and therefore for mitotic progression. Inhibition of activity results in apoptosis. Phosphorylates KIF11 to promote mitotic spindle formation.
Tissue Specificity
Ubiquitous, with highest expression in heart and skeletal muscle.
