About Spag9

Summary

Enables several functions, including MAP-kinase scaffold activity; Kinesin binding activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including JNK cascade; positive regulation of MAPK cascade; and positive regulation of neuron differentiation. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; retina; and trigeminal nerve. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma and liver cirrhosis. Orthologous to human SPAG9 (sperm associated antigen 9).
