{{Short description|Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens}} {{cs1 config|name-list-style=vanc}} {{Infobox_gene}} '''Serine/threonine-protein kinase WNK3''', also known as '''protein kinase lysine-deficient 3''', is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''WNK3'' gene.<ref name="entrez">{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 3| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=65267}}</ref>

== Function ==

WNK3 is a protein belonging to the 'with no lysine' family of serine-threonine protein kinases. These family members lack the catalytic lysine in subdomain II, and instead have a conserved lysine in subdomain I. This family member functions as a positive regulator of the transcellular Ca2+ transport pathway, and it plays a role in the increase of cell survival in a caspase 3 dependent pathway.<ref name="entrez"/>
