cdka-1 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable cyclin-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in GABAergic synaptic transmission; regulation of cellular localization; and synaptic vesicle transport. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and growth cone. Predicted to be part of protein kinase 5 complex. Used to study epilepsy and lissencephaly. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease. Is an ortholog of human CDK5R1 (cyclin dependent kinase 5 regulatory subunit 1) and CDK5R2 (cyclin dependent kinase 5 regulatory subunit 2).
