Gene: RPS6KA2 (ribosomal protein S6 kinase, 90kDa, polypeptide 2) Homo sapiens

Symbol:

RPS6KA2

Name:

ribosomal protein S6 kinase, 90kDa, polypeptide 2

Description:

This gene encodes a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family of serine/threonine kinases. This kinase contains 2 non-identical kinase catalytic domains and phosphorylates various substrates, including members of the mitogen-activated kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway. The activity of this protein has been implicated in controlling cell growth and differentiation. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.

Type:

protein-coding

RefSeq Status:

REVIEWED
