Gene: PTK7

Alternate names for this Gene: CCK-4|CCK4

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the receptor protein tyrosine kinase family of proteins that transduce extracellular signals across the cell membrane. The encoded protein lacks detectable catalytic tyrosine kinase activity, is involved in the Wnt signaling pathway and plays a role in multiple cellular processes including polarity and adhesion. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 6

Location in Chromosome : 6p21.1

Description of this Gene: protein tyrosine kinase 7 (inactive)

Type of Gene: protein-coding
