PHEX - phosphate regulating endopeptidase X-linked Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as HYP; PEX; XLH; HPDR; HYP1; LXHR; HPDR1

Gene ID: 5251 | Gene type: protein coding

About PHEX

Cytogenetic location: Xp22.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:22,032,325-22,251,310 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in lung (RPKM 1.3), endometrium (RPKM 1.1) and 15 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane endopeptidase that belongs to the type II integral membrane zinc-dependent endopeptidase family. The protein is thought to be involved in bone and dentin mineralization and renal phosphate reabsorption. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2013]
