mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 |
Gene Summary |
Enables JUN kinase activity and protein serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including JNK cascade; generation of neurons; and positive regulation of cellular protein metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to nitric oxide; positive regulation of determination of dorsal identity; and protein phosphorylation. Located in several cellular components, including basal dendrite; mitochondrion; and podosome. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; oral region epithelium; sensory organ; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in abdominal aortic aneurysm; chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis; colorectal adenoma; rectal benign neoplasm; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human MAPK8 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] |
