STK40
Description
The STK40 (serine/threonine kinase 40) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.
STK40, a human gene, provides instructions for creating an enzyme known as serine/threonine-protein kinase 40.
STK40 might act as a suppressor of gene expression controlled by the NF-kappa-B and p53 pathways.
STK40 is also known as SHIK, SgK495.
