PRKRA - protein activator of interferon induced protein kinase EIF2AK2 Gene

Also Known as RAX; PACT; DYT16; HSD14

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 8575

About PRKRA

Cytogenetic location: 2q31.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:178,431,414-178,451,175 (from NCBI)

This gene has 36 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues, 14 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 15.5), endometrium (RPKM 12.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a protein kinase activated by double-stranded RNA which mediates the effects of interferon in response to viral Infection. Mutations in this gene have been associated with dystonia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
