Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1326
Gene name Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 8
Gene symbol MAP3K8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
AURA2COTESTESTFMEKK8TPL2Tpl-2c-COT
Chromosome 10
Chromosome location 10p11.23
Summary This gene is an oncogene that encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. The encoded protein localizes to the cytoplasm and can activate both the MAP kinase and JNK kinase pathways. This protein was shown to activate IkappaB kinases,
