CSNK2A1 Transcription Factor
casein kinase 2 alpha 1 | Cka1, Cka2

Casein kinase II is a serine/threonine protein kinase that phosphorylates acidic proteins such as casein. It is involved in various cellular processes, including cell cycle control, apoptosis, and circadian rhythm. The kinase exists as a tetramer and is composed of an alpha, an alpha-prime, and two beta subunits. The alpha subunits contain the catalytic activity while the beta subunits undergo autophosphorylation. The protein encoded by this gene represents the alpha subunit. Multiple transcript variants encoding different protein isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2018]

Genes regulated by CSNK2A1

Genes likely regulated by CSNK2A1 through linked binding evidence in open chromatin. The chart ranks TF-linked genes by their mean Perturb-seq response to CSNK2A1 knockdown, with negative coefficients indicating downregulation and positive coefficients indicating upregulation upon knockdown.

TFs regulating CSNK2A1 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for CSNK2A1. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = CSNK2A1 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to CSNK2A1

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of CSNK2A1, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
