Gene ID55577
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene NameN-acetylglucosamine kinase
Gene Symbol NAGK
SynonymsGNK; HSA242910;
Alternate namesN-acetyl-D-glucosamine kinase; glcNAc kinase;
Chromosome2
Map Location2p13.3
EC Number2.7.1.59
SummaryThis gene encodes a member of the N-acetylhexosamine kinase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the conversion of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine to N-acetyl-D-glucosamine 6-phosphate, and is the major mammalian enzyme which recovers amino sugars. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2011]
