TTBK2 - tau tubulin kinase 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as TTBK; SCA11

Gene ID: 146057 | Gene type: protein coding

About TTBK2

Cytogenetic location: 15q15.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:42,738,730-42,921,000 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 192 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 9.5), brain (RPKM 5.6) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a serine-threonine kinase that putatively phosphorylates tau and tubulin proteins. Mutations in this gene cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 11 (SCA11); a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive ataxia and atrophy of the cerebellum and brainstem.
