Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; ion binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in hippo signaling. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; hepatocyte apoptotic process; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in female associated reproductive structure; lung; male associated reproductive structure; and renal vasculature. Orthologous to human STK3 (serine/threonine kinase 3).
