The human protein kinase family is divided into the following groups:
- AGC kinases - containing PKA, PKC and PKG.
- CaM kinases - containing the calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases.
- CK1 - containing the casein kinase 1 group.
- CMGC - containing CDK, MAPK, GSK3 and CLK kinases.
- STE - containing the homologs of yeast Sterile 7, Sterile 11, and Sterile 20 kinases.
- TK - containing the tyrosine kinases.
- TKL - containing the tyrosine-kinase like group of kinases.

Famous quotes containing the words protein and/or groups:
“Firm-style bean curd insoles cushion feet, absorb perspiration and provide more protein than meat or fish innersoles of twice the weight. Tofu compresses with use, becoming more pungent and flavorful. May be removed when not in use to dry or marinate. Innersoles are ready to eat after 1,200 miles of wear. Each pair provides adult protein requirement for 2 meals. Insoles are sized large to allow for snacks. Recipe booklet included.”
—Alfred Gingold, U.S. humorist. Items From Our Catalogue, “Tofu Innersoles,” Avon Books (1982)
“Instead of seeing society as a collection of clearly defined “interest groups,” society must be reconceptualized as a complex network of groups of interacting individuals whose membership and communication patterns are seldom confined to one such group alone.”
—Diana Crane (b. 1933)
