01

Overview

TTK protein kinase, also known as Monopolar Spindle 1 (Mps1) kinase, is a serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase crucial for regulating cell division and mitotic checkpoint signaling. It ensures accurate chromosome segregation and prevents premature progression from metaphase to anaphase. Dysregulation is implicated in various cancers, making it a therapeutic target. Inhibitors are under investigation for their anti-cancer properties by inducing cell death in rapidly dividing tumor cells.
