Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Predicted to enable calcium-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity; calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity; and calmodulin binding activity. Involved in postsynapse to nucleus signaling pathway and postsynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including neuron-neuron synaptic transmission; positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and positive regulation of protein export from nucleus. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is active in GABA-ergic synapse and glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cocaine dependence. Orthologous to human CAMK4 (calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase IV).
