Gene information for ETNK1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID55500
Official gene symbolETNK1
Full nameethanolamine kinase 1
Aliases,EKI,EKI 1,EKI1,Nbla10396,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes an ethanolamine kinase, which functions in the first committed step of the phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis pathway. This cytosolic enzyme is specific for ethanolamine and exhibits negligible kinase activity on choline. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms.
