Summary: Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in positive regulation of T-helper 2 cell differentiation and positive regulation of cytokine production. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including neuron projection extension; protein localization to plasma membrane; and protein phosphorylation. Located in several cellular components, including axon hillock; myelin sheath abaxonal region; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PRKCZ (protein kinase C zeta).

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.
