DGKZ diacylglycerol kinase zeta [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 8525)

Symbol: DGKZ

Full name: diacylglycerol kinase zeta

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: DAGK5; DAGK6; DGK-ZETA; hDGKzeta

Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the eukaryotic diacylglycerol kinase family. It may attenuate protein kinase C activity by regulating diacylglycerol levels in intracellular signaling cascade and signal transduction. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

Expression: Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 24.7), bone marrow (RPKM 15.6) and 24 other tissues

Orthologs: mouse

Gene size: 47629bp

Exon count: 35
