Scientific Background: CLK2 is a member of the CMGC group of protein kinases in the CLK family. This kinase is highly expressed and widely distributed in most tested human tissues. Orthologues of CLK2 are amongst the most highly conserved protein kinases in animals, plants, fungi and unicellular eukaryotes. CLK2 has been shown to phosphorylate SR proteins and to influence alternative splicing in overexpression systems. CLK family mmbers activate PTP-1B family members, and this phosphatase may be an important cellular target for CLK action. Mutations in the CLK2 proteins affect organismal features such as development, behavior, reproduction, and aging as well as cellular features such as the cell cycle, apoptosis, the DNA replication checkpoint, and telomere length.
