Gene: DGKI

Alternate names for this Gene: DGK-IOTA

Gene Summary: This gene is a member of the type IV diacylglycerol kinase subfamily. Diacylglycerol kinases regulate the intracellular concentration of diacylglycerol through its phosphorylation, producing phosphatidic acid. The specific role of the enzyme encoded by this gene is undetermined, however, it may play a crucial role in the production of phosphatidic acid in the retina or in recessive forms of retinal degeneration.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 7

Location in Chromosome : 7q33

Description of this Gene: diacylglycerol kinase iota

Type of Gene: protein-coding
