Summary
Enables protein kinase binding activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; positive regulation of cell migration; and regulation of cell growth. Located in several cellular components, including Z disc; intercalated disc; and ruffle. Biomarker of brain ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast cancer; renal cell carcinoma; and schizophrenia. Orthologous to human PAK1 (p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 1).

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.
