GAK

GAK, Gak, or gak may refer to:

  • slang term for methamphetamine, cocaine, or marijuana
  • Cyclin G-associated kinase, a protein kinase
  • Ağdam, Khojavend, a village in Azerbaijan formerly known as Gak
  • the Austrian football club Grazer AK (Austrian sports reporters almost exclusively use the acronym)
  • GAK (EP) by GAK, a 1994 pseudonym of Aphex Twin
  • a slimy modeling compound from Nickelodeon and distributed by Mattel in the 1990s. (see Nickelodeon Toys)
  • a slime used on Double Dare 2000 (similar to the toy)
  • GAK (EP)

    GAK is an EP by Richard D. James (Aphex Twin) released in 1994 under the moniker "GAK". The record is sourced from demos Richard D. James sent to Warp Records in 1990 prior to his signing. The album is rumored to be an imitation of the classic Warp artist LFO (British band). James recorded the songs possibly around 1989-1990.

    GAK 1 Is an example of early techno, mainly structured around a repetitive cr78 pattern with a piano melody. GAK 2 is similar but has a more ambient techno sound than any other tracks on the E.P. GAK 3, however is a much darker, track with racing synths and a hard 4–4 beat, one of James' attempts to create a more rave/techno type of sound. GAK 4 is a take on house music, rumoured to have been made as a joke, it is regarded by many as the best track on the record due to its happy vibe, and relaxed beat.

    This album was released both in CD and 12" formats.

    Track listing

  • "GAK 1" – 6:36
  • "GAK 2" – 6:10
  • "GAK 3" – 5:23
  • "GAK 4" – 6:02

  • GAK (protein)

    Cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK) is a serine/threonine kinase that in humans is encoded by the GAK gene.

    Function

    In all eukaryotes, the cell cycle is governed by cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CDKs), whose activities are regulated by cyclins and CDK inhibitors in a diverse array of mechanisms that involve the control of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of Ser, Thr or Tyr residues. Cyclins are molecules that possess a consensus domain called the 'cyclin box.' In mammalian cells, 9 cyclin species have been identified, and they are referred to as cyclins A through I. Cyclin G is a direct transcriptional target of the p53 tumor suppressor gene product and thus functions downstream of p53. GAK is an association partner of cyclin G and CDK5.

    Cyclin G-associated kinase received its name because it immunoprecipitated with cyclin G though it now appears to not be associated with it. Cyclin G-associated kinase is homologous in function to the protein auxilin which when in association with Hsc70 uncoats clathrin in neuronal cells. However, the location of Cyclin G-associated kinase is not in the brain but near the trans-Golgi network of non-neuronal cells such as those found in the liver and testes. GAK is also known to be associated with focal adhesions though the exact relationship between the two is unknown.
