Also known as RK; RBSK

Gene ID: 64080 | Gene type: protein coding

About RBKS

Cytogenetic location: 2p23.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:27,781,379-27,890,387 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in adrenal (RPKM 7.1), small intestine (RPKM 6.5) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the carbohydrate kinase PfkB family. The encoded protein phosphorylates ribose to form ribose-5-phosphate in the presence of ATP and magnesium as a first step in ribose metabolism. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
