речень: 4A kinase is an enzyme which phosphorylates other proteins.
This kinase phosphorylates certain signaling molecules, which triggers a series of additional reactions that transmit chemical signals within cells.
Human cells have many different kinases, and they help control important functions, such as cell signaling, metabolism, division, and survival.
Without many kinases, including cyclin-dependent kinases, or CDKs, we wouldn't be alive!
