Gene Description

CG6830 is an 891-residue ecdysteroid-kinase-like family protein containing two CHK-like kinase domains. The arthropod EcKL family has expanded into branches proposed to phosphorylate endogenous steroids or xenobiotic compounds. The physiological substrate and catalytic properties of CG6830 itself remain unresolved.

UNDECIDED
Summary: Ecdysteroid 22-phosphorylation is not established for CG6830.
Reason: The cited study explicitly proposes a detoxification-kinase hypothesis and analyzes gene-family evolution and expression. The exact target has two CHK-like domains, but those observations neither establish ecdysteroid as its substrate nor prove loss of kinase activity. Target-specific turnover assays are needed to distinguish endogenous steroid phosphorylation from other EcKL chemistry.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:32540344
We propose the hypothesis that members of the arthropod-specific ecdysteroid kinase-like (EcKL) gene family encode detoxicative kinases.

Genomic and transcriptomic analyses in Drosophila suggest that the ecdysteroid kinase-like (EcKL) gene family encodes the 'detoxification-by-phosphorylation' enzymes of insects.
