Summary: Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including macropinocytosis; regulation of cytokine production; and response to lipopolysaccharide. Acts upstream of or within inner ear development; p38MAPK cascade; and positive regulation of gene expression. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; gut; and immune system. Orthologous to human MAPKAPK2 (MAPK activated protein kinase 2).

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.
