WNK kinases and the control of blood pressure.

Pharmacology & therapeutics - 1 May 2005

Cope Georgina, Golbang Amir, O'Shaughnessy Kevin M

Abstract excerpt

The WNK kinases are a small group of serine/threonine kinases with unique catalytic domains that lack the lysine residue used in other kinases to co-ordinate ATP (hence, With No K [WNK]). Their closest homologues are found within the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway suggesting a ro...
