basic FUNCTION
| putatively involved in cell growth and development and in neuronal differentiation |
|
testis-specific kinase with a very restricted expression to stage VIII postmeiotic spermatids, but dispensable for male fertility |
|
autophosphorylated on tyrosine residues and the phosphorylation of the second tyrosine in the YXY motif is necessary for its kinase activity |
|
can phosphorylate target sequences not recognized by DYRK1A or DYRK2  |
|
DYRK1A, DYRK2, and DYRK4 phosphorylate distinct although overlapping sets of the 720 different peptides in the phosphosite array  |
|
DYRK1A, DYRK3, DYRK4 implicated in the regulation of cytoskeletal organization and process outgrowth in neurons  |
