    Summary
    Enables calmodulin binding activity and elongation factor-2 kinase activity. Involved in regulation of protein autophosphorylation. Predicted to be located in dendritic spine and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in liver; lung; nervous system; and olfactory epithelium. Orthologous to human EEF2K (eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase). [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.
