About Wnk4

Summary

Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in negative regulation of sodium ion transport and protein phosphorylation. Located in cytosol and membrane. Biomarker of transient cerebral ischemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension and pseudohypoaldosteronism. Orthologous to human WNK4 (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 4).
