Stk40 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; protein serine kinase activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including glycogen metabolic process; lung development; and respiratory system process. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; hemolymphoid system gland; limb; and skin. Orthologous to human STK40 (serine/threonine kinase 40).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Stk40 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
