About Gk2

Summary

Predicted to enable glycerol kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including glycerol metabolic process; glycerol-3-phosphate biosynthetic process; and triglyceride metabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial outer membrane. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Orthologous to human GK2 (glycerol kinase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
