Melk, (Maternal Embryonic Leucine Zipper Kinase) is a serine-threonine kinase of the snfI/AMPK family that is expressed in developing neuroepithelium, self-renewing neural stem cells and granule cell precursors. It is also considered an important brain tumor marker, being highly expressed in gliobastoma, astrocytomas, and medulablastomas.
