INPP5B inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase B [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 3633)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 3633)
Symbol: INPP5B
Full name: inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatase B
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: 5PTase
Summary: This gene encodes a member of a family of inositol polyphosphate-5-phosphatases. These enzymes function in the regulation of calcium signaling by inactivating inositol phosphates. The encoded protein is localized to the cytosol and mitochondria, and associates with membranes through an isoprenyl modification near the C-terminus. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
