MARK3

protein-coding

microtubule affinity regulating kinase 3, the group of Microtubule affinity regulating kinases

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is activated by phosphorylation and in turn is involved in the phosphorylation of tau proteins MAP2 and MAP4. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001128918.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Serine/threonine-protein kinase (PubMed:23666762). Involved in the specific phosphorylation of microtubule-associated proteins for MAP2 and MAP4. Phosphorylates the microtubule- associated protein MAPT/TAU (PubMed:23666762). Phosphorylates CDC25C on 'Ser-216'. Regulates localization and activity of some histone deacetylases by mediating phosphorylation of HDAC7, promoting subsequent interaction between HDAC7 and 14-3-3 and export from the nucleus (PubMed:16980613). Negatively regulates the Hippo signaling pathway and antagonizes the phosphorylation of LATS1. Cooperates with DLG5 to inhibit the kinase activity of STK3/MST2 toward LATS1 (PubMed:28087714). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16980613, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23666762, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28087714}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Note=Defects in MARK3 may be involved in an autosomal recessive ocular disease characterized by visual impairment manifested at birth, and progressive eye degeneration. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29771303}.;
