Summary: Predicted to enable MAP kinase kinase activity and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to sorbitol; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and response to ischemia. Used to study retinal disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cervical cancer and restrictive cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human MAP2K3 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3).

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.
