About Cdk6

Chromosome 5: 3,391,485-3,581,008 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000998.3

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues, 25 paralogues and is associated with 48 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in thymus adult (RPKM 7.), lung adult (RPKM 3.6) and 26 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the cyclin dependent kinase family of proteins that play important roles in the progression and regulation of the cell cycle. The encoded protein binds to a D-type cyclin to form an active kinase complex to regulate progression through the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit thymic and splenic hypoplasia, and hematopoietic defects such as reduced number of megakaryocytes and erythrocytes. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 4. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2015]
