Name Serine/threonine-protein kinase WNK4
Synonyms
  1. Protein kinase lysine-deficient 4
  2. Protein kinase with no lysine 4
Gene Name WNK4
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in protein kinase activity
Specific Function Regulates the activity of the thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter, SLC12A3, by phosphorylation which appears to prevent membrane trafficking of SLC12A3. Also inhibits the renal K(+) channel, KCNJ1, via a kinase-independent mechanism by which it induces clearance of the protein from the cell surface by clathrin-dependent endocytosis. WNK4 appears to act as a molecular switch that can vary the balance between NaCl reabsorption and K(+) secretion to maintain integrated homeostasis
