Target Species
Human
Target Name
GALK2
Target Full Name
N-acetylgalactosamine kinase
Target 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.
Target Protein Families
GHMP kinase family, GalK subfamily
Target Synonyms
GALK2; GaINAc Kinase; Galactokinase 2; Galk2; GALK2_HUMAN; GalNAc kinase; GK2; MGC1745; N-acetylgalactosamine kinase
Target Background
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 multiple transcript variants.
