STK19 serine/threonine kinase 19

Gene ID: 8859, updated on 14-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: G11; RP1; D6S60; D6S60E; HLA-RP1

Summary

This gene encodes a serine/threonine kinase which localizes predominantly to the nucleus. Its specific function is unknown; it is possible that phosphorylation of this protein is involved in transcriptional regulation. This gene localizes to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region on chromosome 6 and expresses two transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
