Towards the CSNK2 phosphoproteome - With lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic to revealing the secrets of CSNK2 and its promise as a therapeutic target.

Dramatic advances in phosphoproteomics and the development of a selective chemical probe have presented new opportunities for revealing the cellular landscape of substrates for CSNK2 (formerly known as CK2 or casein kinase II). In addition to deciphering the role(s) of CSNK2 in physiology and pathophysiology, the CSNK2 phosphoproteome offers the promise of instructing the development of CSNK2-targeted therapy.
