About GSTK1

Cytogenetic location: 7q34 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:143,263,441-143,269,115 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants) and 226 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 118.1), small intestine (RPKM 106.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the kappa class of the glutathione transferase superfamily of Enzymes that function in cellular detoxification. The encoded protein is localized to the peroxisome and catalyzes the conjugation of glutathione to a wide range of hydrophobic substates facilitating the removal of these compounds from cells. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
