Description
Predicted to have fructokinase activity; glucokinase activity; and mannokinase activity. Involved in glucose homeostasis; pancreas regeneration; and type B pancreatic cell development. Predicted to localize to cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in artery disease (multiple); familial hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia 3; and glucose metabolism disease (multiple). Is expressed in brain; digestive system; female organism; heart; and muscle. Orthologous to human GCK (glucokinase).
