Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionvrk-1 encodes the ortholog of the vaccinia-related protein kinases in metazoans; vrk-1 is required for normal mitosis, proper nuclear envelope formation and regulates the association of the LEM domain protein BAF-1/Barrier-to-autointegration factor (and possibly other LEM domain proteins) with chromatin via BAF-1 phosphorylation; vrk-1 is required for germ cell proliferation and acts in part through regulation of CEP-1/p53; vrk-1 is also required for development of the egg-laying system including several processes like formation of the vulva, the specification and proliferation of uterine cells and sex myoblasts, and anchor cell invasion of the basement membrane between the vulva and somatic gonad; VRK-1 is expressed in neurons, hypodermal cells and vulval cells, and localizes to the nuclear envelope and chromatin in a cell-cylce dependent manner.Paper_evidenceWBPaper00028895

Automated_descriptionEnables protein kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including cell fate specification; gonad development; and regulation of fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Located in nuclear envelope. Part of chromatin. Expressed in several structures, including P3.p hermaphrodite; P4.p hermaphrodite; P8.p hermaphrodite; hermaphrodite gonad; and ventral nerve cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 1A. Is an ortholog of human VRK1 (VRK serine/threonine kinase 1).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943

Reference (22)
RemarkMap position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.CGC_data_submission
