GK5 - glycerol kinase 5 Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About GK5
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 198 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in prostate (RPKM 6.0), duodenum (RPKM 4.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable glycerol kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including glycerol metabolic process; glycerol-3-phosphate biosynthetic process; and triglyceride metabolic process. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
