Misshapen-like kinase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MINK1 gene.
This gene encodes a serine/threonine kinase belonging to the germinal center kinase (GCK) family. The protein is structurally similar to the kinases that are related to NIK and may belong to a distinct subfamily of NIK-related kinases within the GCK family. Studies of the mouse homolog indicate an up-regulation of expression in the course of postnatal mouse cerebral development and activation of the cJun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and the p38 pathways. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and four transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
Function: Serine/threonine kinase that may play a role in the response to environmental stress. Appears to act upstream of the JUN N-terminal pathway. May play a role in the development of the brain (By similarity).
