XK - X-linked Kx blood group antigen, Kell and VPS13A binding protein Gene
Also Known as KX; NA; NAC; X1k; XKR1
Species: Homo sapiens
About XK
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 188 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in colon (RPKM 3.9), small intestine (RPKM 3.0) and 18 other tissues.
Summary
This locus controls the synthesis of the Kell blood group 'precursor substance' (Kx). Mutations in this gene have been associated with McLeod syndrome, an X-linked, recessive disorder characterized by abnormalities in the neuromuscular and hematopoietic systems. The encoded protein has structural characteristics of prokaryotic and eukaryotic membrane transport proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
