Primary Identifier | MGI:2387464 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 211347 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables pantothenate kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within coenzyme A biosynthetic process. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PANK3 (pantothenate kinase 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele in combination with either a knock-out of Pank1 or Pank2 exhibit complete embryonic lethality.
