NEK2  
    


    
      Official symbol:  NEK2
      Full name:  NIMA related kinase 2
      Location:  1q32.3
      Also known as:  NEK2A, RP67, NLK1, PPP1R111
      Entrez ID:  4751
      Ensembl ID:  ENSG00000117650
      Summary:  This gene encodes a serine/threonine-protein kinase that is involved in mitotic regulation. This protein is localized to the centrosome, and undetectable during G1 phase, but accumulates progressively throughout the S phase, reaching maximal levels in late G2 phase. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms with distinct C-termini have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
