About Xk

Summary

Predicted to be involved in amino acid transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular divalent inorganic cation homeostasis; regulation of axon diameter; and skeletal muscle fiber development. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in McLeod syndrome and hematopoietic system disease. Orthologous to human XK (X-linked Kx blood group). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
