CSNK2A1 Gene Description casein kinase 2, alpha 1 polypeptide Alternative Names CKII; CK2A1; CKII alpha Molecular Weight 42 kDa Summary Casein kinase II is a serine/threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates acidic proteins such as casein. The kinase exists as a tetramer and is composed of an alpha, an alpha-prime, and two beta subunits. The alpha subunits contain the catalytic activity while the beta subunits undergo autophosphorylation. The protein encoded by this gene represents the alpha subunit. While this gene is found on chromosome 20, a related transcribed pseudogene is found on chromosome 11. Three transcript variants encoding two different proteins have been found for this gene.1

Western blot data of siRNA transfection experiment. A549 cells were lysed 72 hours after transfection. Cells were transfected with Transfection Reagent alone (Lane 1), 100nM ON-TARGETplus siCONTROL Non-Targeting Pool (Lane 2), or 100nM ONTARGETplus CSNK2A1 siRNA (Lane 3). Western blot data for Cyclophilin B is included as a control for equal protein loading.
