Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.5.0)
Predicted to enable JUN kinase kinase activity and molecular adaptor activity. Involved in intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to hydrogen peroxide and smooth muscle cell apoptotic process. Acts upstream of or within MAPK cascade; negative regulation of motor neuron apoptotic process; and response to wounding. Predicted to be located in axon; dendrite cytoplasm; and perikaryon. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal cancer; ovarian serous carcinoma; pancreatic cancer; respiratory system cancer (multiple); and urinary bladder cancer. Orthologous to human MAP2K4 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 4).
