The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family.
Although this kinase is found in many tissues, its expression in lymphoid follicles is restricted to the cells of germinal centre, where it may participate in B-cell differentiation.
This kinase can be activated by TNF-alpha, and has been shown to specifically activate MAP kinases.
This kinase is also found to interact with TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), which is involved in the activation of MAP3K1/MEKK1.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
