Never-in-mitosis related Kinase 1 functions in DNA damage response and checkpoint control
15 Oct 2008
Abstract excerpt
Nek1, the first mammalian ortholog of the fungal protein kinase never in mitosis A, is involved early in the DNA damage sensing/repair pathway after ionizing radiation. Here we extend this finding by showing that Nek1 localizes to nuclear foci of DNA damage in response to many different types of damage in addition to IR. Untransformed cells established from kat2J/Nek1(-/-) mice fail to arrest properly at G(1)/S...
