TTBK2 tau tubulin kinase 2 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 146057)

Symbol: TTBK2

Full name: tau tubulin kinase 2

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: SCA11; TTBK

Summary: This gene encodes a serine-threonine kinase that putatively phosphorylates tau and tubulin proteins. Mutations in this gene cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 11 (SCA11); a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive ataxia and atrophy of the cerebellum and brainstem.
