Background
This gene encodes a protein belonging to the pantothenate kinase family. Pantothenate kinase is a key regulatory enzyme in the biosynthesis of coenzyme A (CoA) in bacteria and mammalian cells. It catalyzes the first committed step in the universal biosynthetic pathway leading to CoA and is itself subject to regulation through feedback inhibition by CoA. This family member is most abundant in muscle but is expressed in all tissues. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:ATP + (R)-pantothenate = ADP + (R)-4'-phosphopantothenate.,enzyme regulation:Regulated by feedback inhibition by CoA and its thioesters.,function:Plays a role in the physiological regulation of the intracellular CoA concentration.,pathway:Cofactor biosynthesis; coenzyme A biosynthesis; coenzyme A from pantothenate: step 1/5.,similarity:Belongs to the type II pantothenate kinase family.,subunit:Interacts with PKM2.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed with higher expression in the muscle.,
Other name
Pantothenate kinase 4 (hPanK4) (EC 2.7.1.33) (Pantothenic acid kinase 4)
