HIPK2, Official Symbol HIPK2provided by HGNC Official Full Name homeodomain interacting protein kinase 2provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:14402 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000064393 MIM:606868; AllianceGenome:HGNC:14402 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status VALIDATED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as PRO0593 Summary This gene encodes a conserved serine/threonine kinase that is a member of the homeodomain-interacting protein kinase family. The encoded protein interacts with homeodomain transcription factors and many other transcription factors such as p53, and can function as both a corepressor and a coactivator depending on the transcription factor and its subcellular localization. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
