| Function | Casein kinases are operationally defined by their preferential utilization of acidic proteins such as caseins as substrates. The alpha chain contains the catalytic site. May act as an ectokinase that phosphorylates several extracellular proteins. |
| Tissue Specificity | Seems to be present in all plant organs. But seem to be more expressed than CKA1. |
