Function | Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in the process of chromatin assembly and probably also DNA replication, transcription, repair, and chromosome segregation (PubMed:10523312, PubMed:11470414, PubMed:12660173, PubMed:12955071, PubMed:29955062, PubMed:33323470, PubMed:9427565). Phosphorylates the chromatin assembly factors ASF1A and ASF1B (PubMed:11470414, PubMed:20016786, PubMed:29955062, PubMed:35136069). Phosphorylation of ASF1A prevents its proteasome- mediated degradation, thereby enhancing chromatin assembly (PubMed:20016786). Negative regulator of amino acid starvation-induced autophagy (PubMed:22354037). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Nucleus, nucleoplasm. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Colocalizes with the cytoplasmic intermediate filament system during the G1 phase of the cell cycle (PubMed:10455159). Present in the perinuclear region at S phase and in the nucleus at late G2 (PubMed:10455159) |
Tissue Location | Detected in placenta, fetal liver, kidney, pancreas, heart and skeletal muscle (PubMed:9427565). Highly expressed in testis (PubMed:9427565, PubMed:9662073). Detected in spleen, thymus, colon, ovary, small intestine, prostate and peripheral blood leukocytes (PubMed:9662073). Almost undetectable in liver and lung (PubMed:9662073). |

Background
TLK2, a member of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family, is rapidly and transiently inhibited by phosphorylation following the generation of DNA double-stranded breaks during S-phase. This is cell cycle checkpoint and ATM-pathway dependent and appears to regulate processes involved in chromatin assembly. The TLK2 enzyme is cell-cycle regulated, with maximal activity in S-phase. It is inactivated by phosphorylation at Ser-750, potentially by CHK1. TLK2 heterodimerizes with TLK1. This nuclear protein is widely expressed, with presence in fetal placenta, liver, kidney, pancreas, heart and skeletal muscle tissues, and in several adult cell lines.
