About PC

Cytogenetic location: 11q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 11:66,848,420-66,958,383 (from NCBI)

This gene has 19 transcripts (splice variants), 235 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 30.0), liver (RPKM 19.3) and 13 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes pyruvate carboxylase, which requires biotin and ATP to catalyse the carboxylation of pyruvate to oxaloacetate. The active Enzyme is a homotetramer arranged in a tetrahedron which is located exclusively in the mitochondrial matrix. Pyruvate carboxylase is involved in gluconeogenesis, lipogenesis, Insulin secretion and synthesis of the neurotransmitter glutamate. Mutations in this gene have been associated with pyruvate carboxylase deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants with different 5' UTRs, but encoding the same protein, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
