Switch #:
SWTI000469
Switch type:
Binary
Switch subtype:
Pre-translational

Description:
Alternative splicing removes the PP1-docking motif of Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek2 (NEK2), abrogating binding to Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP1-alpha catalytic subunit (PPP1CA). Isoform Nek2A of Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek2 (NEK2) is localised at centrosomes and causes centrosome splitting. Isoform Nek2B of Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek2 (NEK2) is expressed at a different point in the cell cycle and required for assembly/maintenance of centrosomes.

Participants:
(1) Serine/threonine-protein kinase Nek2 (NEK2)
(2) Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase PP1-alpha catalytic subunit (PPP1CA)
