Gene: HIPK2

Alternate names for this Gene: PRO0593

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a conserved serine/threonine kinase that is a member of the homeodomain-interacting protein kinase family. The encoded protein interacts with homeodomain transcription factors and many other transcription factors such as p53, and can function as both a corepressor and a coactivator depending on the transcription factor and its subcellular localization. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7q34

Description of this Gene: homeodomain interacting protein kinase 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding
