Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 9.0.0)
Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including cilium assembly; positive regulation of smoothened signaling pathway; and smoothened signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within brain development and epithelial cilium movement involved in extracellular fluid movement. Located in cytoplasm. Is active in ciliary tip. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; sensory organ; skeleton; spleen; and testis. Used to study hydrocephalus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ciliary dyskinesia. Orthologous to human STK36 (serine/threonine kinase 36).
