Vaccinia-related kinase 2 Antibody / VRK2

Serine/threonine-protein kinase VRK2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the VRK2 gene. This gene encodes a member of the vaccinia-related kinase (VRK) family of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein acts as an effector of signaling pathways that regulate apoptosis and tumor cell growth. Variants in this gene have been associated with schizophrenia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that differ in their subcellular localization and biological activity.
