SRPK1 (serine-arginine protein kinase 1) is a protein kinase that specifically phosphorylates proteins containing serine-arginine-rich domains. Its substrates include a family of SR proteins that are key regulators of mRNA AS (alternative splicing). VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), a principal angiogenesis factor contains an alternative 3' splice site in the terminal exon that defines a family of isoforms with a different amino acid sequence at the C-terminal end, resulting in anti-ang...
