About Limk2

Chromosome 11: 3,294,256-3,359,189 reverse strand.GRCm39:CM001004.3

This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 31 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in placenta adult (RPKM 23.2), colon adult (RPKM 19.9) and 27 other tissues.

Summary

Enables protein kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cornea development in camera-type eye; protein phosphorylation; and spermatogenesis. Located in cis-Golgi network and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human LIMK2 (LIM domain kinase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
