About NEK2

Cytogenetic location: 1q32.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:211,658,256-211,675,621 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 28.1), bone marrow (RPKM 3.8) and 6 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a serine/threonine-protein kinase that is involved in mitotic regulation. This protein is localized to the centrosome, and undetectable during G1 phase, but accumulates progressively throughout the S phase, reaching maximal levels in late G2 phase. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms with distinct C-termini have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
