Description: Homo sapiens dual-specificity tyrosine-(Y)-phosphorylation regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A), transcript variant 3, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_001396): This gene encodes a member of the Dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase (DYRK) family. This member contains a nuclear targeting signal sequence, a protein kinase domain, a leucine zipper motif, and a highly conservative 13-consecutive-histidine repeat. It catalyzes its autophosphorylation on serine/threonine and tyrosine residues. It may play a significant role in a signaling pathway regulating cell proliferation and may be involved in brain development. This gene is a homolog of Drosophila mnb (minibrain) gene and rat Dyrk gene. It is localized in the Down syndrome critical region of chromosome 21, and is considered to be a strong candidate gene for learning defects associated with Down syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene generates several transcript variants differing from each other either in the 5' UTR or in the 3' coding region. These variants encode at least five different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

ID:DYR1A_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Dual specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A; EC=2.7.12.1; AltName: Full=Dual specificity YAK1-related kinase; AltName: Full=HP86; AltName: Full=Protein kinase minibrain homolog; Short=MNBH; Short=hMNB; FUNCTION: May play a role in a signaling pathway regulating nuclear functions of cell proliferation. Phosphorylates serine, threonine and tyrosine residues in its sequence and in exogenous substrates. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein. ENZYME REGULATION: Inhibited by RANBP9. SUBUNIT: Interacts RAD54L2/ARIP4 (By similarity). Interacts with RANBP9. Interacts with WDR68. INTERACTION: P31946:YWHAB; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-1053621, EBI-359815; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus speckle. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous. Highest levels in skeletal muscle, testis, fetal lung and fetal kidney. DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in the developing central nervous system. Overexpressed 1.5-fold in fetal Down syndrome brain. DOMAIN: The polyhistidine repeats act as targeting signals to nuclear speckles (PubMed:19266028). PTM: Autophosphorylated on tyrosine residues. DISEASE: Defects in DYRK1A are the cause of mental retardation autosomal dominant type 7 (MRD7) [MIM:614104]. A disease characterized by primary microcephaly, severe mental retardation without speech, anxious autistic behavior, and dysmorphic features, including bitemporal narrowing, deep-set eyes, large simple ears, and a pointed nasal tip. Mental retardation is characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptative behavior and manifested during the developmental period. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CMGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MNB/DYRK subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
