TTBK1, tau tubulin kinase 1

TTBK1, tau tubulin kinase 1

• Summary:This gene belongs to the casein kinase 1 superfamily. The encoded protein is a neuron-specific, serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase, which regulates phosphorylation of tau, a protein that associates with microtubule assemblies and stabilizes them. Genetic variants in this gene are associated with Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
