Primary Identifier | MGI:1920334 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 241656 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.3.0) Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within learning or memory; locomotory behavior; and negative regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Located in mitochondrion. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in brain. Orthologous to human PAK5 (p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 5). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice exhibit impaired active avoidance learning but are otherwise normal.
