Primary Identifier | MGI:1921428 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 74178 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; protein serine kinase activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including glycogen metabolic process; lung development; and respiratory system process. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; hemolymphoid system gland; limb; and skin. Orthologous to human STK40 (serine/threonine kinase 40). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit complete neonatal lethality associated with cyanosis, atelectasis, respiratory distress and impaired lung maturation.
