General description

NEK9 is a member of the NEK family and has high homology to NEK1, NEK3 and NEK4. NEK9 is activated during mitosis and binds specifically to RAN GTPase and is a substrate for CDC2 phosphorylation. NEK9 plays a role in the control of mitotic progression and is regulated by CDC2 and RAN GTPase. Overexpression of both active and inactive variants of NEK9 is toxic to cells and inhibits cell division causing abnormal nuclear morphologies. NEK9 can catalyze the phosphorylation of recombinant NEK6 and NEK7 in vitro leading to its activation. This suggests that NEK9 may be responsible for activation of NEK6 and NEK7 during mitosis.

The protein kinase NIMA is an indispensable pleiotropic regulator of mitotic progression in Aspergillus. Although several mammalian NIMA-like kinases (Neks) are known, none appears to have the broad importance for mitotic regulation attributed to NIMA. Nercc1 is a new NIMA-like

The Nek family of protein kinases in humans is composed of 11 members that share an amino-terminal catalytic domain related to NIMA, an Aspergillus kinase involved in the control of several aspects of mitosis, and divergent carboxyl-terminal tails of varying
