About WNK2

Cytogenetic location: 9q22.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:93,184,139-93,320,569 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 333 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 88 phenotypes. Broad expression in heart (RPKM 6.5), colon (RPKM 6.3) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a cytoplasmic serine-threonine kinase that belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. The protein plays an important role in the regulation of electrolyte homeostasis, cell signaling survival, and proliferation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
