Background
Casein kinase I gamma 2 isoform (CSNK1G2); a member of the large casein kinase I (CKI) subfamily; protein kinase superfamily. It may affect the development of brain; and associate with vesicular trafficking and neurotransmitter releasing from small synaptic vesicles. The CKI family includes several other isoforms (alpha; beta; gamma; and delta). Dishevelled (Dsh); another positive component of the Wnt pathway; becomes phosphorylated in response to Wnt signals. All the CKI isoforms; with the exception of gamma; increase the phosphorylation of Dsh in vivo. Casein kinase 1 gamma (CK1gamma; or CSNK1G) is associated with the cell membrane and binds to LRP. CK1gamma was found to be needed for Wnt signaling through Wnt receptor LRP. CSNK1G2 inhibits Smad3-mediated TGF-beta responses including induction of target genes and cell growth arrest; and this inhibition is dependent on CSNK1G2 kinase activity. The overexpression of CSNK1G2 in human cancers; may act as an oncoprotein during tumorigenesis. In addition; as an MTA1s-binding protein; CSNK1G2 could further potentiate the estrogen receptor (ER) corepressive function of MTA1s.
