Prkag2 - protein kinase, AMP-activated, gamma 2 non-catalytic subunit Gene

Predicted to enable adenyl ribonucleotide binding activity; protein kinase binding activity; and protein kinase regulator activity. Predicted to contribute to AMP-activated protein kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to glucose starvation; glycogen metabolic process; and regulation of phosphorylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of nucleotide-activated protein kinase complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; heart and pericardium; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome; glycogen storage disease; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 6; and lethal congenital glycogen storage disease of heart. Orthologous to human PRKAG2 (protein kinase AMP-activated non-catalytic subunit gamma 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
