Protein kinase Cβ (PRKCB) plays a role in autophagy regulation (Patergnani et al., 2013), CREBBP inactivation promotes the development of HDAC3-dependent lymphomas (Jiang et al., 2017), and abnormal expression of Casein kinase 2α1 (CSNK2A1) is linked to neurological diseases and cancer (Trinh et al., 2017). This evidence concerns the gene CSNK2A1 and cancer.
