Summary
Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within blood vessel development and positive regulation of p38MAPK cascade. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; heart; and metanephros. Orthologous to human MAP3K3 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 3).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
