Scientific Background: CK2a1 (CSNK2A1) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the Other group and CK2 family. CK2a1 is activated by the CK2-beta regulatory subunit and also by binding p38a MAPK. CK2 is potently inhibited by heparin. It is involved in various cellular processes, such as cell cycle control, apoptosis, transcription, and viral infection. It can phosphorylate human p53 protein a tS392 with presence of UV irradiation, which may be a potential mechanism for p53 activation by UV irradiation. It also phosphorylates the caspases CASP9 and CASP2, and hence negatively regulates apoptosis. CK2a1 levels are often up-regulated by 2-fold in expression in many human tumours.
