Gene: MARK4

Alternate names for this Gene: MARK4L|MARK4S|MARKL1|MARKL1L|PAR-1D

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the microtubule affinity-regulating kinase family. These protein kinases phosphorylate microtubule-associated proteins and regulate the transition between stable and dynamic microtubules. The encoded protein is associated with the centrosome throughout mitosis and may be involved in cell cycle control. Expression of this gene is a potential marker for cancer, and the encoded protein may also play a role in Alzheimer's disease. Pseudogenes of this gene are located on both the short and long arm of chromosome 3. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19q13.32

Description of this Gene: microtubule affinity regulating kinase 4

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: TRAPPC6A

Alternate names for this Gene: TRS33

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a component of the trafficking protein particle complex, which tethers transport vesicles to the cis-Golgi membrane. Loss of expression of the related gene in mouse affects coat and eye pigmentation, suggesting that the encoded protein may be involved in melanosome biogenesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
