2.7.11.26

Accepted name:

tau-protein kinase

Reaction:

ATP + [tau-protein] = ADP + O-phospho-[tau-protein]

Other name(s):

ATP:tau-protein O-hosphotransferase; brain protein kinase PK40erk; cdk5/p20; CDK5/p23; glycogen synthase kinase-3β; GSK; protein tau kinase; STK31; tau kinase; [tau-protein] kinase; tau-protein kinase I; tau-protein kinase II; tau-tubulin kinase; TPK; TPK I; TPK II; TTK

Systematic name:

ATP:[tau-protein] O-phosphotransferase

Comments:

Activated by tubulin. Involved in the formation of paired helical filaments, which are the main fibrous component of all fibrillary lesions in brain and are associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
