      Official symbol:  ULK2
      Full name:  unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 2
      Location:  17p11.2
      Also known as:  Unc51.2, KIAA0623, ATG1B
      Entrez ID:  9706
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000083290
      Summary:  This gene encodes a protein that is similar to a serine/threonine kinase in C. elegans which is involved in axonal elongation. The structure of this protein is similar to the C. elegans protein in that both proteins have an N-terminal kinase domain, a central proline/serine rich (PS) domain, and a C-terminal (C) domain. The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified.
