Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 9448
Gene name Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 4
Gene symbol MAP4K4
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
FLH21957HEL-S-31HGKMEKKK4NIK
Chromosome 2
Chromosome location 2q11.2
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. This kinase has been shown to specifically activate MAPK8/JNK. The activation of MAPK8 by this kinase is found to be inhibited by the dominant-negative mutants of
