Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable Rho-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic body morphogenesis; nematode pharyngeal gland morphogenesis; and nematode pharynx development. Located in adherens junction; contractile muscle fiber; and nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including P3.p hermaphrodite; Z2; Z3; gonad; and hypodermis. Is an ortholog of human ROCK1 (Rho associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 1) and ROCK2 (Rho associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 2).
