Description
This protein is a member of the serine
threonine kinase family. This kinase has been shown to activate MAPK8
JNK and MKK4
SEK1, and this kinase itself can be phoshorylated, and thus activated by JNK kinases. This kinase functions preferentially on the JNK signaling pathway, and is reported to be involved in nerve growth factor (NGF) induced neuronal apoptosis
