NEK11 is a member of the NEK family and the protein localizes to the nucleoli where it may function with NEK2A in the S-phase checkpoint. NEK2 phosphorylates NEK11 in its C-terminal autoinhibitory domain and elevates NEK11 kinase activity by dissociating the autoinhibitory domain from the N-terminal catalytic domain. NEK11 protein appears to play a role in DNA replication and response to genotoxic stress. NEK11 activity is activated in HeLa cells treated with various DNA-damaging agents and replication inhibitors. Activation of NEK11 by genotoxic agents is suppressed by inhibitor of ATR/ATM-mediated signalling indicating that NEK11 has a role in S-phase checkpoint downstream of ATR/ATM signalling.

DNA replication and genotoxic stresses activate various checkpoint-associated protein kinases, and checkpoint dysfunction often leads to cell lethality. Here, we have identified new members of the mammalian NIMA family of kinases, termed Nek11L and Nek11S (NIMA-related kinase 11 Long and

We previously reported that Nek11, a member of the NIMA (never-in-mitosis A) family of kinases, is activated in G(1)/S-arrested cells. We provide herein several lines of evidence for a novel interaction between Nek11 and Nek2A. Both Nek11 and Nek2A, but
