Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
TRAF2 and NCK-interacting protein kinase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the TNIK gene .[ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
Germinal center kinases (GCKs), such as TNIK, are characterized by an N-terminal kinase domain and a C-terminal GCK domain that serves a regulatory function.[ 6] [ 7]
TNIK has been shown to interact with KIAA0090 ,[ 8] although the significance is unclear. TNIK has been shown to phosphorylate Gelsolin , a protein involved in F-actin depolymerisation thus inducing cytoskeletal changes.[ 6]
TNIK plays an important role in pulmonary fibrosis . Inhibitors of TNIK are used in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis. [ 9]
