Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CAMKK1 gene. The product of this gene belongs to the Serine/Threonine protein kinase family, and to the Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase subfamily. This protein plays a role in the calcium/calmodulin-dependent(CaM) kinase cascade. Three transcript variants encoding two distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. CaMKK binds calmodulin and activated Camk4 with a 6-fold increase in total activity and a 100-fold increase in Camk4 Ca(2+)-independent activity. It catalyzed a 10-fold increase in the total activity of CaMK1 and had no effect on CaMK2. Cotransfection of COS-7 cells with CaMKK and Camk4 resulted in a 14-fold increase in CRE-binding protein-dependent transcription compared with Camk4 alone, suggesting that CaMKK enhances Camk4-mediated transcriptional regulation.
