DGKQ diacylglycerol kinase theta

Gene ID: 1609, updated on 11-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: DAGK; DAGK4; DAGK7

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene contains three cysteine-rich domains, a proline-rich region, and a pleckstrin homology domain with an overlapping Ras-associating domain. It is localized in the speckle domains of the nucleus, and mediates the regeneration of phosphatidylinositol (PI) from diacylglycerol in the PI-cycle during cell signal transduction.
