General presentation

  • Dyrk1A related kinases and human diseases conference will focus on DYRK1A and related kinases, including structural, regulatory and functional aspects, substrates and interactors, functions at cell and organism levels as well as development and potential therapeutic use of selective pharmacological inhibitors in various indications.

About the event

  • DYRKs (‘dual specificity, tyrosine phosphorylation regulated kinases’) (DYRK1A, 1B, 2, 3, 4) play key roles in mRNA splicing, chromatin transcription, DNA damage repair, aging, cell survival, cell cycle, differentiation, endocytosis, neuronal development and functions, synaptic plasticity, mytochondrial functions. Inhibition of DYRKs may find applications in Down syndrome, Alzheimer’s disease and tauopathies, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, otitis, osteoarthritis, viral infections, various cancers, etc. The closely related CLKs (‘cdc2-like kinases’) (CLK1, 2, 3, 4) also play essential functions in Alzheimer’s disease and tauopathies, alternative splicing, various viral infections, cancers, etc. DYRK and CLK orthologs are found in plants, fungi, yeast and unicellular parasites.
