Doublecortin-like kinase protein 1 (DCLK1)[5][6][7][8] is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DCLK1 gene.[5][6][8] Its C-terminal domain in rats is expressed independently from an alternative transcript, cpg16, and can function alone as a serine/threonine protein kinase that is cyclic AMP dependent.[9][10]
DCLK1 expression is a marker for tuft cells, a type of chemosensory cell of the intestinal epithelium.[7][11]
