Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables AMP-activated protein kinase activity; chromatin binding activity; and histone H2BS36 kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of autophagy; regulation of organelle organization; and regulation of protein modification process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to prostaglandin E stimulus; cellular response to xenobiotic stimulus; and response to muscle activity. Located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic stress granule; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; lung; and spinal cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PRKAA2 (protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha 2).
