Background: The phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of proteins on serine and threonine residues is an essential means of regulating a broad range of cellular functions in eukaryotes, including cell division, homeostasis and apoptosis. The homeodomain-interacting protein kinases (HIPK1, HIPK2, HIPK3 and HIPK4) comprise a subfamily of kinase proteins that have a conserved protein kinase domain, as well as a separate domain that interacts with homeoproteins. HIPK4 (Homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 4) is a 616 amino acid protein that localizes to the cytoplasm and exists as two isoforms that are produced by alternative splicing events. Like other members of the HIPK family, HIPK4 functions as a protein kinase that catalyzes the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of target proteins and is thought to act as a corepressor of target transcription factors.
