Background:

Several mammalian kinases have been identified which exhibit sequence similarity to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae serine/threonine kinase STE20. STE20 is involved in relaying signals from G-protein coupled receptors to cytosolic MAP kinase cascades, and it lies upstream of a MAP kinase kinase kinase. Mammalian STE20-like kinases include GLK, KHS, NIK, YSK1, HPK1, Krs-1, Krs-2 and human GC kinase. GLK (for GC-like kinase) is an 885 amino acid protein that shares a high degree of homology with GC kinase and HPK1. Like many of the STE20-like kinases, GLK specifically activates the JNK pathway. Epistasis studies with dominant negative mutants of MEKK1 suggest that GLK functions upstream of MEKK1 in the JNK signaling pathway.

Specificity:
