Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable calcium-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity; calmodulin binding activity; and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity. Involved in behavioral response to nicotine; determination of adult lifespan; and regulation of protein deneddylation. Located in nucleus. Expressed in body wall musculature; intestine; pharyngeal muscle cell; pharynx; and vulval muscle. Is an ortholog of human MKNK2 (MAPK interacting serine/threonine kinase 2).
