🧬 Gene Info

Gene Symbol	CSNK2B
Protein Type	Enzyme
Function	CSNK2B encodes the beta subunit of casein kinase 2 (CK2), a serine/threonine protein kinase with diverse cellular functions.
Primary Expression	neurons and glial cells, with particularly high levels in the hippocampus and cerebral [cortex](/br
Pathways	Wnt, PI3K, NF-κB
Ensembl ID	ENSG00000101290
GeneCards	CSNK2B
Human Protein Atlas	CSNK2B
Protein Phosphorylation	CK2 phosphorylates over 500 substrates involved in transcription, translation, cell cycle, and signal transduction [@casein2014]
Signal Transduction	Modulates numerous signaling pathways including Wnt, PI3K/Akt, and NF-κB [@nfb]
Transcriptional Regulation	Controls gene expression through phosphorylation of transcription factors and chromatin proteins [@transcription2013]
DNA Repair	Involved in DNA damage response and repair pathways [@dna2015]
Synaptic Function	Regulates synaptic plasticity and neurotransmitter receptor trafficking [@synaptic2008]
Parkinson's Disease	CK2 has been shown to phosphorylate alpha-synuclein, potentially influencing its aggregation properties. Research suggests CK2 may play a role in PD pathogenesis [@phosphorylation]
Huntington's Disease	CK2 activity is altered in HD models, affecting mutant huntingtin aggregation and toxicity [@huntingtons]
Associated Diseases	neurodegeneration
