Activation of NIMA Kinases NEK9, NEK6, NEK7

Click the image above or here to open this pathway in the Pathway Browser

NEK6 and NEK7 are activated during mitosis by another NIMA family kinase, NEK9 (Belham et al. 2003, Richards et al. 2009), which is activated by CDK1- and PLK1-mediated phosphorylation (Roig et al. 2002, Bertran et al. 2011).
