Epilepsy kinase CDKL5 is a DNA damage sensor which controls transcriptional activity at DNA breaks

2020-12-11

Abstract excerpt

Mutation of the CDKL5 kinase gene leads to the seizure-prone neurodevelopmental condition CDD (CDKL5 deficiency disorder) and is the most common genetic cause of childhood epilepsy. However, the phospho-targets and roles of CDKL5 are poorly understood, especially in the nucleus. We reveal CDKL5 as a sensor of DNA damage in actively transcribed regions of the nucleus, which phosphorylates transcriptional regulator...
