NCIt synonyms : Large Tumor Suppressor Kinase 1; Large Tumor Suppressor 1; LATS1; LATS1 Protein; LATS Homolog 1; WARTS Protein Kinase; Large Tumor Suppressor Homolog 1; h-warts; EC 2.7.11.1; Large Tumor Suppressor Homolog-1 Protein;
NCIt definition : Serine/threonine-protein kinase LATS1 (1130 aa, 127 kDa) is encoded by the human
LATS1 gene. This protein plays a role in both mitosis and serine/threonine phosphorylation.;
NCIt note : LATS1 is a negative regulator of CDC2/cyclin A. In early mitosis, it complexes (via
the N-terminal region) with the mitotic apparatus cell cycle controller CDC2 kinase;
the complex shows reduced H1 histone kinase activity.;
