Gene information for PPP1R17 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10842
Official gene symbolPPP1R17
Full namechromosome 7 open reading frame 16
Aliases,C7orf16,GSBS,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is found primarily in cerebellar Purkinje cells, where it functions as a protein phosphatase inhibitor. The encoded protein is a substrate for cGMP-dependent protein kinase. An allele of this gene was discovered that increases susceptibility to hypercholesterolemia. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
