※ G11 family introduction

    G11 family contains a single human gene and belongs to atypical kinase group (1). G11 has been shown to posses the ser/thr kinase activity against alpha casein and histone, but the activity can only be observed in immunoprecipitates from Sf21 insect cells and primate COS cells. G11 contains the ATP-binding ability and the kinase activity remains to be more understood. It is suggested that another kinase binds G11 and perform its kinase activity (2).
