Function | Protein kinase which plays an important role in mitotic cell cycle progression (PubMed:17101132, PubMed:31409757, PubMed:19941817). Required for microtubule nucleation activity of the centrosome, robust mitotic spindle formation and cytokinesis (PubMed:17586473, PubMed:19414596, PubMed:31409757, PubMed:19941817, PubMed:26522158). Phosphorylates EML4 at 'Ser-146', promoting its dissociation from microtubules during mitosis which is required for efficient chromosome congression (PubMed:31409757). Phosphorylates RPS6KB1 (By similarity). Acts as an essential activator of the NLRP3 inflammasome assembly independently of its kinase activity (PubMed:26642356, PubMed:36442502). Acts by unlocking NLRP3 following NLRP3 tranlocation into the microtubule organizing center (MTOC), relieving NLRP3 autoinhibition and promoting formation of the NLRP3:PYCARD complex, and activation of CASP1 (PubMed:26642356, PubMed:31189953, PubMed:36442502). Serves as a cellular switch that enforces mutual exclusivity of the inflammasome response and cell division: interaction with NEK9 prevents interaction with NLRP3 and activation of the inflammasome during mitosis (PubMed:26642356, PubMed:31189953). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9ES74}. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Note=Present at centrosome throughout the cell cycle (PubMed:17586473). Also detected at spindle midzone of the anaphase cells and eventually concentrates at the midbody (PubMed:17586473). Interaction with ANKS3 prevents its translocation to the nucleus (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9ES74, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17586473} |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in lung, muscle, testis, brain, heart, liver, leukocyte and spleen. Lower expression in ovary, prostate and kidney. No expression seen in small intestine |
