Gene information for MKKS (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID8195
Official gene symbolMKKS
Full nameMcKusick-Kaufman syndrome
Aliases,BBS6,HMCS,KMS,MKS,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein with sequence similarity to the chaperonin family. The encoded protein may have a role in protein processing in limb, cardiac and reproductive system development. Mutations in this gene have been observed in patients with Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 6 and McKusick-Kaufman syndrome. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
