Sphk2 - sphingosine kinase 2 Gene
Also Known as Sk2; Spk2
生物種: Mus musculus
About Sphk2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 209 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum adult (RPKM 72.1), adrenal adult (RPKM 42.9) and 28 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a kinase that phosphorylates sphingosine into sphingosine-1-phosphate, which is involved in cell differentiation, motility, and Apoptosis. The encoded protein plays a role in maintaining cellular levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate. The gene product also enhances Apoptosis in different cell types and suppresses cellular proliferation. In mast cells, the encoded protein is necessary for influx of calcium, protein kinase C activation, and cytokine production and degranulation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
