Cerkl - ceramide kinase-like Gene

Also Known as Rp26; Gm1958

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 228094

Summary

Enables sphingolipid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within sphingolipid biosynthetic process. Located in several cellular components, including perinuclear region of cytoplasm; photoreceptor inner segment; and photoreceptor outer segment. Is expressed in eye and optic nerve. Used to study retinitis pigmentosa 26. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa and retinitis pigmentosa 26. Orthologous to human CERKL (ceramide kinase like).
