WNK1 (with no lysine 1) is a member of the WNK family of serine-threonine kinases. The WNK family of kinases has been observed to play a role in several cellular processes which include ion balance, signal transduction, survival, proliferation and organ development. WNK1 appears to be important to ion homeostasis. Mutations in WNK1 cause pseudohypoaldosteronism type II (PHA II), also called Gordon’s syndrome, an autosomal dominant disease characterized by defects in ion transport in the nephron that result in hypertension and hyperkalemia. WNK1 has been reported to regulate sodium and chloride ion transport by influencing the activity of another WNK family member, WNK4. WNKF1 has also been observed to regulate ion homeostasis independent of WNK4.

WNK1 encodes a member of the WNK subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein may be a key regulator of blood pressure by controlling the transport of sodium and chloride ions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with pseudohypoaldosteronism type II and hereditary sensory neuropathy type II. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described but the full-length nature of all of them has yet to be determined.
