galactokinase 2 | Cytological Location | 15q21.1-q21.2 |
Brief Description | galactokinase 2 |
Description | This gene encodes a highly efficient N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) kinase, which has galactokinase activity when galactose is present at high concentrations. The encoded protein is a member of the GHMP kinase family. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2017] |
