(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3795
Official gene symbolKHK
Full nameketohexokinase (fructokinase)
Aliases,-,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes ketohexokinase that catalyzes conversion of fructose to fructose-1-phosphate. The product of this gene is the first enzyme with a specialized pathway that catabolizes dietary fructose. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
