Serine/threonine-protein kinase 19 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STK19 gene and is involved in DNA repair, specifically the Transcription Coupled Nucleotide Excision Repair Pathway (TC-NER).
The name is misleading — although STK19 was initially identified as a serine/threonine kinase, analysis of the crystal structure revealed absence of the kinase domain and it does not seem to possess any kinase activity.
This gene localizes to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region on chromosome 6 and expresses two transcript variants.
