Chk2, Checkpoint Kinase 2: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type: protein
Chk2: a protein that plays a crucial role in the regulation of the cell cycle and the response to DNA damage. It is a tumor suppressor gene that helps to prevent cancer by ensuring that cells with damaged DNA do not divide and proliferate.
Chk2 is activated in response to DNA damage, such as that caused by ionizing radiation or certain chemicals. Once activated, Chk2 phosphorylates and activates other proteins that help to repair DNA damage or induce cell death (apoptosis) if the damage is too severe.
Decreased expression or loss of function of CHK2 is often associated with more aggressive tumor behavior, increased invasiveness, and poorer prognosis across various cancer types. CHK2 plays a crucial role in maintaining genomic stability, and its dysfunction can lead to increased susceptibility to DNA damage and tumorigenesis.
