(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6794
Official gene symbolSTK11
Full nameserine/threonine kinase 11
Aliases,LKB1,PJS,
Gene summaryThis gene, which encodes a member of the serine/threonine kinase family, regulates cell polarity and functions as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the growth of polyps in the gastrointestinal tract, pigmented macules on the skin and mouth, and other neoplasms. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized. [provided by RefSeq]
