Summary
Enables protein kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within blastocyst development; mitotic spindle assembly; and protein phosphorylation. Located in condensed nuclear chromosome; midbody; and spindle pole. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 67. Orthologous to human NEK2 (NIMA related kinase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
