About HK3

Cytogenetic location: 5q35.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:176,880,869-176,899,346 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 129 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Biased expression in bone marrow (RPKM 50.3), spleen (RPKM 14.0) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

Hexokinases phosphorylate glucose to produce glucose-6-phosphate, the first step in most glucose metabolism pathways. This gene encodes Hexokinase 3. Similar to hexokinases 1 and 2, this allosteric Enzyme is inhibited by its product glucose-6-phosphate. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
