Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Enables protein kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including circadian regulation of gene expression; midbrain dopaminergic neuron differentiation; and positive regulation of proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within non-motile cilium assembly. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; facial prominence ectoderm; foregut; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in advanced sleep phase syndrome 2. Orthologous to human CSNK1D (casein kinase 1 delta).
