ETNK2, Official Symbol ETNK2provided by HGNC Official Full Name ethanolamine kinase 2provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:25575 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000143845 MIM:609859; AllianceGenome:HGNC:25575 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as EKI2; HMFT1716 Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a member of choline/ethanolamine kinase family which catalyzes the first step of phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) biosynthesis via the cytidine diphosphate (CDP) ethanolamine pathway. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
