PROK2 - prokineticin 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as BV8; HH4; PK2; KAL4; MIT1

Gene ID: 60675 | Gene type: protein coding

About PROK2

Cytogenetic location: 3p13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 3:71,771,655-71,785,148 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 259 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in bone marrow (RPKM 18.5), appendix (RPKM 9.5) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein expressed in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) circadian clock that may function as the output component of the circadian clock. The secreted form of the encoded protein may also serve as a chemoattractant for neuronal precursor cells in the olfactory bulb. Proteins from Other vertebrates which are similar to this gene product were isolated based on homology to snake venom and secretions from frog skin, and have been shown to have diverse functions. Mutations in this gene are associated with Kallmann syndrome 4. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
