degradation

CELLULAR FUNCTIONS

cellular localization,
biological function
1. FUNCTION: Involved in axon growth. Plays an essential role in neurite extension of cerebellar granule cells (By similarity).
2. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.
3. SUBUNIT: Interacts with GABARAP and GABARAPL2.
4. INTERACTION: O95166:GABARAP; NbExp=1; IntAct=EBI-908831, EBI-712001;
5. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed. Detected in the following adult tissues: skeletal muscle, heart, pancreas, brain, placenta, liver, kidney, and lung.
6. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. APG1/unc-51/ULK1 subfamily.
7. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
