HYI hydroxypyruvate isomerase (putative) [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 81888)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 81888)
Symbol: HYI
Full name: hydroxypyruvate isomerase (putative)
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: HT036
Summary: This gene encodes a putative hydroxypyruvate isomerase, which likely catalyzes the conversion of hydroxypyruvate to 2-hydroxy-3-oxopropanoate, and may be involved in carbohydrate transport and metabolism. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
