Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables several functions, including 14-3-3 protein binding activity; ATP binding activity; and Hsp90 protein binding activity. Involved in Ras protein signal transduction; cAMP-mediated signaling; and regulation of cell population proliferation. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of MAPK cascade. Predicted to be located in cytosol and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast adenocarcinoma. Orthologous to human KSR1 (kinase suppressor of ras 1).
