Serine/Threonine Kinase 32C (STK32C)

Serine/Threonine Kinase 32C (STK32C) is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. The specific function of this kinase is not known.

Serine/threonine protein kinases (EC 2.7.11.1) phosphorylate the OH group of serine or threonine (which have similar sidechains). At least 125 of the 500+ human protein kinases are serine/threonine kinases (STK). While serine/threonine kinases all phosphorylate serine or threonine residues in their substrates, they select specific residues to phosphorylate on the basis of residues that flank the phosphoacceptor site, which together comprise the consensus sequence. Many serine/threonine protein kinases do not have their own individual EC numbers and use "2.7.11.1".
