Description
Product Characteristics: Ribosomal protein S6 kinase beta-2:S6K-beta-2:S6K2:70 kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase 2:S6 kinase-related kinase (SRK):STK14B:Serine/threonine-protein kinase 14B
Target Information: This gene encodes a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family of serine/threonine kinases. This kinase contains 2 nonidentical kinase catalytic domains and phosphorylates the S6 ribosomal protein and eucaryotic translation initiation factor 4B (eIF4B). Phosphorylation of S6 leads to an increase in protein synthesis and cell proliferation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
