Description
The CILK1 gene, also known as Cytokine-like 1, encodes a protein that plays a critical role in regulating cell growth and proliferation. This protein is involved in various cellular processes, including signal transduction, immune response, and cell cycle control. Its expression is tightly regulated, and dysregulation of CILK1 has been linked to a number of diseases.
