About DGKK

Cytogenetic location: Xp11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:50,365,409-50,470,825 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 103 orthologues and 9 paralogues. Biased expression in adrenal (RPKM 2.2), brain (RPKM 0.3) and 1 other tissue.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is an Enzyme that phosphorylates diacylglycerol, converting it to phosphatidic acid. The encoded protein is a membrane protein and is inhibited by hydrogen peroxide. Variations in this gene have been associated with hypospadias. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
