ROCK2 - Rho associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 2 Gene

Also Known as ROCK-II

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 9475

About ROCK2

Cytogenetic location: 2p25.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:11,179,759-11,345,437 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 309 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in fat (RPKM 15.2), colon (RPKM 13.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates cytokinesis, smooth muscle contraction, the formation of actin stress fibers and focal adhesions, and the activation of the c-Fos serum response element. This protein, which is an isozyme of ROCK1 is a target for the small GTPase Rho. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
