Background Information
MELK is involved in various processes such as cell cycle regulation, self-renewal of stem cells, apoptosis and splicing regulation. It also plays a key role in cell proliferation and carcinogenesis, and it is required for proliferation of embryonic and postnatal multipotent neural progenitors.
