Summary: Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; histone H2AS1 kinase activity; and protein serine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including epicardium morphogenesis; heart development; and negative regulation of Wnt signaling pathway involved in heart development. Acts upstream of or within regulation of gene expression. Located in basolateral plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
