About MAPK4

Cytogenetic location: 18q21.1-q21.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 18:50,559,612-50,731,826 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 207 orthologues and 19 paralogues. Biased expression in adrenal (RPKM 3.2), brain (RPKM 3.1) and 11 other tissues.

Summary

Mitogen-activated protein kinase 4 is a member of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family. Tyrosine kinase growth factor receptors activate mitogen-activated protein kinases which then translocate into the nucleus and phosphorylate nuclear targets. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
