Summary: Enables protein homodimerization activity; protein serine/threonine kinase activator activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including JNK cascade; positive regulation of JUN kinase activity; and protein phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of motor neuron apoptotic process. Located in cytosol; growth cone; and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ.

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.
