Gene information for Hck (Rattus norvegicus)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID25734
Official gene symbolHck
Full namehemopoietic cell kinase
AliasesHctk
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a protein-tyrosine kinase that is predominantly expressed in hemopoietic cell types.The encoded protein may help couple the Fc receptor to the activation of the respiratory burst. In addition, it may play a role in neutrophil migration and in the degranulation of neutrophils. Alternate translation initiation site usage, including a non-AUG (CUG) codon, results in the production of two different isoforms in human and mouse. Based on strong sequence conservation amongst these species, this may also be true for rat. [provided by RefSeq]
