CHEK1
Overview
Checkpoint kinase 1 (CHEK1) is a gene that encodes a protein that is a member of the serine/threonine kinase family. The protein functions in the cell cycle arrest response to DNA damage or unreplicated DNA. Missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, and frameshift deletions and insertions are observed in cancers such as endometrial cancer, intestinal cancer, and stomach cancer.
