Gene information for XK (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7504
Official gene symbolXK
Full nameX-linked Kx blood group (McLeod syndrome)
Aliases,KX,X1k,XKR1,
Gene summaryThis locus controls the synthesis of the Kell blood group 'precursor substance' (Kx).
