NEK8
Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek8 , also known as never in mitosis A-related kinase 8 , is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NEK8 gene .[ 5] [ 6]
Function
Nek8 is a member of the serine/threonine-specific protein kinase family related to NIMA (never in mitosis, gene A) of Aspergillus nidulans cell cycle progression from G2 to M phase .[ 5]
Clinical significance
Mutations in the NEK8 gene associated with nephronophthisis .[ 7] [ 8]
