pantothenate kinase 2 |
| Gene Summary |
Enables pantothenate kinase activity. Involved in coenzyme A biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including aerobic respiration; regulation of mitochondrial membrane potential; and spermatid development. Located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Is active in mitochondrial intermembrane space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration. Orthologous to human PANK2 (pantothenate kinase 2).
