Mapkapk5 - MAPK activated protein kinase 5 Gene

Predicted to enable several functions, including Calmodulin binding activity; p53 binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of DNA metabolic process; protein phosphorylation; and stress-induced premature senescence. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of dendritic spine development. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleoplasm; and septin Cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to human MAPKAPK5 (MAPK activated protein kinase 5).
