Catalytic ActivityATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9890973}.
CofactorName=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:9890973};
FunctionSerine/threonine kinase that may play a role in the response to environmental stress and cytokines such as TNF-alpha. Appears to act upstream of the JUN N-terminal pathway. Phosphorylates SMAD1 on Thr-322. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21690388, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9890973}.
InteractionQ9H0R5:GBP3; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-2511133, EBI-2798916;
SimilarityBelongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. STE20 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 CNH domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00795, ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 protein kinase domain. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00159}.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14966141}.
SubunitInteracts with the SH3 domain of the adapter proteins Nck (By similarity). Interacts (via its CNH regulatory domain) with ATL1 (via the N-terminal region). Interacts with RAP2A (GTP-bound form preferentially). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12387898, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14966141}.
Tissue SpecificityAppears to be ubiquitous. Expressed in all tissue types examined. Isoform 5 appears to be more abundant in the brain. Isoform 4 is predominant in the liver, skeletal muscle and placenta. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9890973}.
