IPPK inositol-pentakisphosphate 2-kinase [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 64768)

Symbol: IPPK

Full name: inositol-pentakisphosphate 2-kinase

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: C9orf12; INSP5K2; IP5K; IPK1; bA476B13.1

Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a kinase that phosphorylates position 2 of inositol-1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate to form inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate (InsP6). InsP6 has a variety of functions, including stimulation of DNA repair, endocytosis, and mRNA export. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]
