About Map2k2

Primary_assembly 7: 8,580,905-8,610,243 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026980.1

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 273 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 25 phenotypes. Biased expression in Kidney (RPKM 39.2), Muscle (RPKM 261.5) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Enables ATP binding activity and MAP kinase kinase activity. Involved in negative regulation of gene expression and protein phosphorylation. Located in cell cortex and cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome 4 and small intestine adenocarcinoma. Orthologous to human MAP2K2 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2).
