Description

serine/threonine protein kinase YPK1

Gene Summary

Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to acetate; eisosome assembly; and regulation of fungal-type cell wall organization. Located in cellular bud neck; cytosol; and plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension. Orthologous to several human genes including C8orf44-SGK3 (C8orf44-SGK3 readthrough); SGK1 (serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 1); and SGK2 (serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 2).
