About Plk2

Chromosome 13: 110,531,580-110,537,378 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001006.3

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 221 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 11 phenotypes. Broad expression in CNS E18 (RPKM 28.3), cortex adult (RPKM 24.4) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of apoptotic process in bone marrow cell; negative regulation of cellular senescence; and positive regulation of cell migration involved in sprouting angiogenesis. Acts upstream of or within mitotic cell cycle and negative regulation of apoptotic process. Located in chromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; hindlimb interdigital region; integumental system; nervous system; and skeleton. Orthologous to human PLK2 (polo like kinase 2).
