(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4750
Official gene symbolNEK1
Full nameNIMA (never in mitosis gene a)-related kinase 1
Aliases,DKFZp686D06121,DKFZp686K12169,KIAA1901,MGC138800,NY-REN-55,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase involved in cell cycle regulation. The encoded protein is found in a centrosomal complex with FEZ1, a neuronal protein that plays a role in axonal development. Defects in this gene are a cause of polycystic kidney disease (PKD). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
