Specific Activity2337 U/mg, where one unit of GCK activity is defined as 1nmol phosphate incorporated into 0.8 mg/mL myelin basic protein per minute at 30°C with a final ATP concentration of 100 μM.
Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. Although this kinase is found in many tissues, its expression in lymphoid follicles is restricted to the cells of germinal centre, where it may participate in B-cell differentiation. This kinase can be activated by TNF-alpha, and has been shown to specifically activate MAP kinases. This kinase is also found to interact with TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), which is involved in the activation of MAP3K1/MEKK1.
Gene Symbol
  • MAP4K2
  • GCK
