Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) is a serine/threonine protein kinase that in humans is encoded by the CDKL5 gene. It is critically involved in early brain development and function, particularly in neuronal maturation and synaptic regulation. Mutations in CDKL5 are associated with CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD), a severe neurodevelopmental condition that manifests with early-onset epilepsy, developmental delay, and motor and cognitive impairment. CDKL5 is closely related to the cyclin-dependent kinase family and has been implicated in disorders such as Rett syndrome and other epileptic encephalopathies.
