Gene: PKIG
Alternate names for this Gene: PKI-gamma
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the protein kinase inhibitor family. Studies of a similar protein in mice suggest that this protein acts as a potent competitive cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor, and is a predominant form of inhibitor in various tissues. The encoded protein may be involved in osteogenesis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 20
Location in Chromosome : 20q13.12
Description of this Gene: cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor gamma
Type of Gene: protein-coding
