About Chek1

Chromosome 9: 36,619,778-36,638,361 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001002.3

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 178 orthologues and is associated with 10 phenotypes. Biased expression in CNS E11.5 (RPKM 8.), liver E14 (RPKM 5.6) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables histone kinase activity (H3-T11 specific). Involved in epigenetic maintenance of chromatin in transcription-competent conformation; regulation of histone H3-K9 acetylation; and regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter in response to UV-induced DNA damage. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including DNA damage checkpoint signaling; G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle; and inner cell mass cell proliferation. Located in chromatin; nucleus; and replication fork. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal medulla; early conceptus; gonad; gut; and trunk mesenchyme derived from neural crest. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pancreatic Cancer. Orthologous to human CHEK1 (checkpoint kinase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
