    Summary
    Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; protein phosphorylation; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway via death domain receptors; nervous system development; and positive regulation of centrosome duplication. Located in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and spindle pole centrosome. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; heart; musculature; and somite. Orthologous to human ROCK2 (Rho associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    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.
