Gene: PNKP

Alternate names for this Gene: AOA4|CMT2B2|EIEE10|MCSZ|PNK

Gene Summary: This locus represents a gene involved in DNA repair. In response to ionizing radiation or oxidative damage, the protein encoded by this locus catalyzes 5' phosphorylation and 3' dephosphorylation of nucleic acids. Mutations at this locus have been associated with microcephaly, seizures, and developmental delay.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19q13.33

Description of this Gene: polynucleotide kinase 3'-phosphatase

Type of Gene: protein-coding
