Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including histone binding activity; histone kinase activity; and nucleosomal DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including Cajal body organization; Golgi disassembly; and positive regulation of protein localization to chromatin. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein autophosphorylation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi stack; chromatin; and nuclear lumen. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive distal hereditary motor neuronopathy 10 and pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 1A. Orthologous to human VRK1 (VRK serine/threonine kinase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
