    basic FUNCTION
  • ribosomal protein S6 kinase, serine/threonine kinase, non receptor type, involved in neuronal development
  • can participate in non-growth factor signaling as for instance TP53-induced growth arrest (Duemmler 2005)
  • its expression may limit the oncogenic, invasive, and metastatic potential of breast cancer cells (may be, in part, due to its regulation of claudin-2) (Thakur 2008)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, translation/synthesis
