About WNK3

Cytogenetic location: Xp11.22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:54,192,823-54,358,900 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 217 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 7.2), brain (RPKM 1.1) and 5 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein belonging to the 'with no lysine' family of serine-threonine protein kinases. These family members lack the catalytic lysine in subdomain II, and instead have a conserved lysine in subdomain I. This family member functions as a positive regulator of the transcellular Ca2+ transport pathway, and it plays a role in the increase of cell survival in a caspase-3-dependent pathway. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
