Protein Coding Gene : Ulk2 unc-51 like kinase 2

Primary Identifier  MGI:1352758 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  11 NCBI Gene Number  29869
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0)

Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in autophagy and response to starvation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including axonogenesis; negative regulation of collateral sprouting; and somatic sensory system development. Located in phagophore assembly site membrane. Is expressed in facial bone primordium; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human ULK2 (unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 2).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in an increased anxiety-like response in males. [provided by MGI curators]
