Gene: AK6

Alternate names for this Gene: AD-004|CGI-137|CINAP|CIP|hCINAP

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the adenylate kinase family of enzymes. The protein has a nuclear localization and contains Walker A (P-loop) and Walker B motifs and a metal-coordinating residue. The protein may be involved in regulation of Cajal body formation. In human, AK6 and TAF9 (GeneID: 6880) are two distinct genes that share 5' exons. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 5

Location in Chromosome : 5q13.2

Description of this Gene: adenylate kinase 6

Type of Gene: protein-coding
