• Background: CDC-like kinase 3 (CLK3) is part of the dual-specificity protein kinase (DSK) family that phosphorylate serine/arginine rich (SR) proteins that are part of the spliceosomal complex and also regulate non-splicing proteins. Dysfunction in pathways regulated by CLK3 can result in cancer. CLK3 is upregulated in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and hematopoietic stem cells pathologies. The mechanism of action in each disease seems to be specific, with CLK3 activating Wnt3a transcription and increasing cell proliferation and migration in HCC, but it works in a CLK3-USP13-c-Myc feedback loop in CCA. CLK3 also contributes to HIV infection by promoting the expression of Gag and viral RNA. The use of chlorhexidine, a CLK2 /3/4 inhibitor, for HIV-1 treatment has shown in promising results in decreasing viral replication and prevention of mother-to-child transmission (MTCT). The development of CLK3 specific inhibitors and a deeper understanding of its role in the multiple pathways where it is involved will prove crucial for the treatment of CLK3-linked diseases.
