KHK - ketohexokinase Gene

Also Known as FRUCTU

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 3795

About KHK

Cytogenetic location: 2p23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:27,086,772-27,100,762 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 77.2), liver (RPKM 59.5) and 2 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes Ketohexokinase that catalyzes conversion of fructose to fructose-1-phosphate. The product of this gene is the first enzyme with a specialized pathway that catabolizes dietary fructose. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
