About RPS6KA4

Cytogenetic location: 11q13.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:64,359,162-64,372,215 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 190 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in spleen (RPKM 12.2), colon (RPKM 9.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family of serine/threonine kinases. This kinase contains 2 non-identical kinase catalytic domains and phosphorylates various substrates, including CREB1 and ATF1. The encoded protein can also phosphorylate histone H3 to regulate certain inflammatory genes. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
