SummarySummary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
This gene encodes a highly efficient N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) kinase, which has galactokinase activity when galactose is present at high concentrations. The encoded protein is a member of the GHMP kinase family. Alternative splicing results in multi |

Protein name |
N-acetylgalactosamine kinase (EC 2.7.1.157) (GalNAc kinase) (Galactokinase 2) |
Protein function |
Acts on GalNAc. Also acts as a galactokinase when galactose is present at high concentrations. May be involved in a salvage pathway for the reutilization of free GalNAc derived from the degradation of complex carbohydrates. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1 |
