XYLB - xylulokinase Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About XYLB
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 196 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Broad expression in liver (RPKM 5.0), kidney (RPKM 3.6) and 18 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene shares 22% sequence identity with Hemophilus influenzae xylulokinase, and even higher identity to Other gene products in C.elegans (45%) and yeast (31-35%), which are thought to belong to a family of Enzymes that include fucokinase, gluconokinase, glycerokinase and xylulokinase. These proteins play important roles in energy metabolism. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]
