DCAMKL1; also known as DCLK1; is a member of the protein kinase superfamily and the doublecortin family. It contains two N-terminal doublecortin domains; which bind microtubules and regulate microtubule polymerization; a C-terminal serine/threonine protein kinase domain; which shows substantial homology to Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase; and a serine/proline-rich domain in between the doublecortin and the protein kinase domains; which mediates multiple protein-protein interactions. DCAMKL1 is involved in several different cellular processes; including neuronal migration; retrograde transport; neuronal apoptosis and neurogenesis. Its microtubule-polymerizing activity is independent of its protein kinase activity. DCAMKL1 may be involved in a calcium-signaling pathway controlling neuronal migration in the developing brain. It may also participate in functions of the mature nervous system.
