Scientific Background: MLTK (ZAK) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the TKL group and MLK family. It is activated by phosphorylation by PKN1 and autophosphorylation on T161 and S165. It has a pro-apoptotic activity and mediates cell cycle arrest and checkpoint regulation. It regulates the JNK and p38 pathways. Involved in regulation of S and G2 cell cycle checkpoints by direct phosphorylation of Chk2. MLTK causes cell shrinkage and disruption of actin stress fibers and phosphorylates histone H3 at S28. It has been suggested to play a role in cell transformation and oncogenesis.
