HMSN6C

Chr 21

pyridoxal kinase

Also known as: C21orf124, C21orf97, HEL-S-1a, HMSN6C, PKH, PNK, PRED79

The protein encoded by this gene phosphorylates vitamin B6, a step required for the conversion of vitamin B6 to pyridoxal-5-phosphate, an important cofactor in intermediary metabolism. The encoded protein is cytoplasmic and probably acts as a homodimer. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined.
