🧬 Gene Info
Gene SymbolBRSK1
Full NameBrain-Specific Serine/Threonine-Protein Kinase 1
Chromosome19q13.42
Protein TypeSerine/Threonine Kinase
FunctionBRSK1 is a brain-enriched serine/threonine kinase essential for neuronal polarization and axon specification
Subcellular Localization**Calcium regulation** — BRSK1 activity may be modulated by calcium-dependent signaling in neurons
PathwaysAMPK
UniProt IDQ8TDC3
NCBI Gene ID84446
Ensembl IDENSG00000160469
OMIM609235
GeneCardsBRSK1
Human Protein AtlasBRSK1
Axon determinationBRSK1 is activated by LKB1/STK11 at the nascent axon tip; its local activation triggers the symmetry-breaking event that converts one neurite into the axon
SAD kinase functionIn *C. elegans*, the SAD-1 ortholog clusters synaptic vesicles at presynaptic terminals; mammalian BRSK1 retains this function while gaining additional polarity roles
Associated Diseasesneurodegeneration
DatabasesGeneCardsHPASTRING
