DCK - deoxycytidine kinase Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About DCK
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 206 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Broad expression in lymph node (RPKM 50.3), appendix (RPKM 23.2) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
Deoxycytidine kinase (DCK) is required for the phosphorylation of several deoxyribonucleosides and their nucleoside analogs. Deficiency of DCK is associated with resistance to Antiviral and Anticancer chemotherapeutic agents. Conversely, increased deoxycytidine kinase activity is associated with increased activation of these compounds to cytotoxic nucleoside triphosphate derivatives. DCK is clinically important because of its relationship to drug resistance and sensitivity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
