PKG1
PKG1, also known as proXYGEN Kasein Kinase 1, is a gene that encodes a protein kinase. This protein kinase plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including DNA repair, circadian rhythm regulation, and signal transduction. The protein product of PKG1 acts by phosphorylating other proteins, thereby altering their activity and function. Mutations in the PKG1 gene have been associated with certain human diseases, though the exact mechanisms are still under investigation. Research into PKG1 continues to explore its involvement in a wide range of biological pathways and its potential as a therapeutic target.
