Crystal structure of Arabidopsis thaliana casein kinase 2 α1 Ghent University Flanders Institute for Biotechnology Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Casein kinase 2 (CK2) is a ubiquitous pleiotropic enzyme that is highly conserved across eukaryotic kingdoms. CK2 is singular amongst kinases as it is highly rigid and constitutively active. Arabidopsis thaliana is widely used as a model system in molecular plant research; the biological functions of A. thaliana CK2 are well studied in vivo and many of its substrates have been identified. Here, crystal structures of the alpha subunit of A. ...
