About TTBK1

Cytogenetic location: 6p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:43,243,481-43,288,258 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 195 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 4.4), small intestine (RPKM 0.9) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

Summary:This gene belongs to the Casein Kinase 1 superfamily. The encoded protein is a neuron-specific, serine/threonine and tyrosine kinase, which regulates phosphorylation of tau, a protein that associates with microtubule assemblies and stabilizes them. Genetic variants in this gene are associated with Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
