Gene: [00.0/PAK1] p21/Cdc42/Rac1-activated kinase 1 (yeast Ste20-related); serine/threonine kinase PAK-alpha;
FUN  | PAK1 is a GTPase effector controlling a downstream MAP kinase pathway in mammalian cells, as Ste20 does in yeast. PAK and Ste20 kinases play key parts in linking extracellular signals from membrane components, such as receptor-associated G proteins and Rho-related GTPases, to nuclear responses, such as transcriptional activation (Brown-1996)." |
