Official Full Name: cyclin dependent kinase 11B
Also known as: p58; PK58; CDK11; CLK-1; CDC2L1; PITSLREA; p58CLK-1; CDK11-p46; CDK11-p58; p58CDC2L1; CDK11-p110
This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. Members of this kinase family are known to be essential for eukaryotic cell cycle control. Due to segmental duplications, this gene has very high sequence identity with neighboring genes. These two genes are frequently deleted or altered in neuroblastoma. The gene encodes a protein kinase that is cleaved by caspases and may play a role in apoptosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
