IUBMB Comments

Requires Mg2+. NEK6 subfamily kinases are present in animals, though lost in insects, and include human NEK6 and NEK7 and C. elegans nekl-3. They are activated in mitosis by phosphorylation by NEK9 , and phosphorylate cytoskeletal proteins including EML4, KIF11A and KIF14 [4,2]. In C. elegans, nekl-3 is involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis . In peptide arrays, NEK6 prefers to phosphorylate Ser residues, with hydrophobic residues at -2 and +1 and charged residues at -1, -2 and +2 .

The enzyme appears in viruses and cellular organisms
