Scientific Background: DMPK1 is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the AGC group and DMPK family. It is a protein kinase that is essential for maintaining skeletal muscle structure and function. It is activated in response to G protein second messengers. Proteolytic processing of the C-terminus may remove the transmembrane domain and release the kinase from membranes stimulating its activity. Phosphorylation by Raf1 may result in activation of DMPK. It is maintained in an inactive conformation by the negative autoregulatory C-terminal coiled-coil region.
