Primary Identifier | MGI:1346347 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 23939 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0) Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in protein phosphorylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of calcineurin-NFAT signaling cascade; peptidyl-serine phosphorylation; and regulation of angiogenesis. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; early conceptus; gonad; nervous system; and salivary gland. Orthologous to human MAPK7 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 7). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous inactivation of this gene leads to embryonic growth retardation and midgestational lethality due to multiple developmental anomalies and vascular remodelling, cardiac development, and placental defects.
