BRSK2 is a serine/threonine-protein kinase that plays a key role in polarization of neurons and axonogenesis, cell cycle progress and insulin secretion.
It phosphorylates CDK16, CDC25C, MAPT/TAU, PAK1 and WEE1.
Following phosphorylation and activation by STK11/LKB1, acts as a key regulator of polarization of cortical neurons, probably by mediating phosphorylation of microtubule-associated proteins such as MAPT/TAU at 'Thr-529' and 'Ser-579'.
It also regulates neuron polarization by mediating phosphorylation of WEE1 at 'Ser-642' in post-mitotic neurons, leading to down-regulate WEE1 activity in polarized neurons.
It plays a role in the regulation of the mitotic cell cycle progress and the onset of mitosis.
It plays a role in the regulation of insulin secretion in response to elevated glucose levels, probably via phosphorylation of CDK16 and PAK1.
While BRSK2 is phosphorylated at Thr-174 can inhibit insulin secretion, BRSK2 is phosphorylated at Thr-260 can promote insulin secretion.
It regulates reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.
It may play a role in the apoptotic response triggered by endoplasmatic reticulum (ER) stress.
