Tissue Specificity | Most abundant in heart, liver, kidney and testis. Also expressed in smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts. |
Post Translational Modifications | Autophosphorylated on serine and threonine residues. When complexed with FACT, exhibits markedly elevated phosphorylation on Thr-210. During mitosis, not phosphorylated on Thr-210. Phosphorylated by CDK1 in vitro. |
Function | Pleiotropic regulator of mitotic progression, participating in the control of spindle dynamics and chromosome separation. Phosphorylates different histones, myelin basic protein, beta-casein, and BICD2. Phosphorylates histone H3 on serine and threonine residues and beta-casein on serine residues. Important for G1/S transition and S phase progression. Phosphorylates NEK6 and NEK7 and stimulates their activity by releasing the autoinhibitory functions of Tyr-108 and Tyr-97 respectively. |
