Although zinc fingers usually function by binding to DNA or RNA, the LIM motif probably mediates protein-protein interactions.
LIM kinase-1 and LIM kinase-2 belong to a small subfamily with a unique combination of 2 N-terminal LIM motifs and a C-terminal protein kinase domain.
LIMK1 is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates actin polymerization via phosphorylation and inactivation of the actin binding factor cofilin.
LIM domain kinase 1 is ubiquitously expressed during development and plays a role in many cellular processes associated with cytoskeletal structure.
LIM domain kinase 1 also stimulates axon growth and may play a role in brain development.
LIMK1 hemizygosity is implicated in the impaired visuospatial constructive cognition of Williams syndrome.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.
