Synonyms: Homeobox protein Hox-A5, Homeobox protein Hox-1C, HOXA5, HOX1C
Tissue Specificity: Ubiquitously expressed. Present at highest levels in the brain, at high levels in the placenta and testis, at intermediate levels in the intestine, ovary, skeletal muscle and thymus and at lower levels in heart, kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, prostate and spleen. In the kidney, it is widely expressed in tubules, but sparsely expressed in the glomerulus (PubMed:24676636). Expression is significantly increased in renal biopsy specimens from idiopathic FSGS (PubMed:24676636). Overexpressed in many tumor types including breast, colorectal, endometrial, hepatic, kidney, lung, ovarian and pancreatic tumors.
Background: Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MELK gene. Maternal embryonic leucine-zipper kinase (MELK) is a key regulator of survival of stemlike GBM cells in vitro. MELK expression is increased in breast cancer tissue and this increase is also associated with poor patient survival, as predicted for a candidate oncogene.
