Catalytic domain of the Serine/Threonine Kinase, NIM1 STKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. NIM1 is a widely-expressed kinase belonging to the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) subfamily. Although present in most tissues, NIM1 kinase activity is only observed in the brain and testis. NIM1 is capable of autophosphorylating and activating itself, but may be present in other tissues in the inactive form. The physiological function of NIM1 has yet to be elucidated. The NIM1 subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of other STKs, protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. |
