MINK1 is a serine/threonine kinase which acts as a negative regulator of Ras-related Rap2-mediated signal transduction to control neuronal structure and AMPA receptor trafficking. MINK1 is required for normal synaptic density, dendrite complexity, and surface AMPA receptor expression in hippocampal neurons. MINK1 also activates the JNK and MAPK14/p38 pathways and stimulates the stress-activated protein kinase MAPK14/p38 MAPK.
MINK1 is linked to regulating a subset of T helper cells and is implicated in developing autoimmune diseases. Additionally, MINK1 is a regulator of the activation of the inflammasome. Modulation of MINK1 could help manage inflammasome-related conditions. There is also evidence that MINK1 may have a role in developing colorectal cancer if adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated. MINK1 is a potential target for triple-negative breast cancer.
We have an antibody to the MINK1 paralog, TNIK.
