Predicted to enable MAP kinase kinase kinase activity and protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated and protein phosphorylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within phosphorylation. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; integumental system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human MAP3K2 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
