DSTYK

Chr 1

dual serine/threonine and tyrosine protein kinase

Also known as: CAKUT1, DustyPK, HDCMD38P, RHDNS1, RIP5, RIPK5, SPG23

This dual serine/threonine and tyrosine protein kinase acts as a positive regulator of ERK phosphorylation downstream of fibroblast growth factor receptor activation and regulates both caspase-dependent apoptosis and caspase-independent cell death pathways. Mutations cause autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia 23 and congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract, as well as autosomal dominant forms of renal and urinary tract malformations. The gene shows significant constraint against loss-of-function variants (LOEUF 0.37), suggesting intolerance to complete protein loss.
