CAMK1

CAMK1

A gene on chromosome 3p25.3 that encodes the alpha subunit of a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase, which is part of the calcium-triggered CaMKK-CaMK1 signalling cascade and, upon calcium influx, regulates transcription activation, cell cycling, hormone production, cell differentiation, actin filament organisation and neurite outgrowth.
