The encoded protein also is involved in cell cycle arrest in response to double-stranded DNA damage. Finally, this protein plays a role in maintaining cilium integrity, and defects in this gene have been associated with ciliopathies. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]. * **UniProt Summary**: Protein kinase that seems to act exclusively upon threonine residues (By similarity). Required for normal entry into proliferative arrest after a limited number of cell divisions, also called replicative senescence. Required for normal cell cycle arrest in response to double-stranded DNA damage. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9Z1J2, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22851694}. |Pkinase| |Pkinase Tyr| |regulation of replicative cell aging| |ciliary plasm| |ciliary rootlet| |ciliary transition zone| |regulation of cellular senescence| |regulation of cell aging| |manganese ion binding| |ciliary basal body| |stress-activated protein kinase signaling cascade| |regulation of response to DNA damage stimulus| |activation of protein kinase activity| |protein serine/threonine kinase activity| |signal transduction by protein phosphorylation| |cell division| |positive regulation of protein kinase activity| |positive regulation of kinase activity| |positive regulation of transferase activity| |mitotic cell cycle| |regulation of cellular response to stress| |cellular response to DNA damage stimulus| |regulation of protein kinase activity| |regulation of kinase activity| |protein phosphorylation| |regulation of transferase activity| |positive regulation of protein phosphorylation| |positive regulation of phosphorylation| |positive regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |positive regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |positive regulation of protein modification process| |phosphorylation| |cell cycle| |positive regulation of catalytic activity| |regulation of protein phosphorylation| |regulation of response to stress| |ATP binding| |positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated| |regulation of phosphorylation| |positive regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |positive regulation of nucleic acid-templated transcription| |positive regulation of RNA biosynthetic process| |intracellular signal transduction| |cellular response to stress| |positive regulation of protein metabolic process| |positive regulation of RNA metabolic process| |positive regulation of molecular function| |regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |regulation of protein modification process| |positive regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process| |positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| |positive regulation of biosynthetic process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp532|TIC10 10μM R08 exp532]]|-1.83| |[[:results:exp379|MSC2530818 10μM R07 exp379]]|1.79| |[[:results:exp23|Nocodazole 0.02μM R00 exp23]]|1.85| |[[:results:exp306|Rapamycin 2μM R07 exp306]]|2.04| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
