Hex-C - Hexokinase C

Enables glucosamine kinase activity and hexokinase activity. Involved in glucose 6-phosphate metabolic process; glucose catabolic process; and glucose homeostasis. Predicted to be located in mitochondrial outer membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol and mitochondrion. Is expressed in adult head; border follicle cell; and spermatozoon. Used to study glucose metabolism disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4G; anemia (multiple); artery disease (multiple); glucose metabolism disease (multiple); and hematologic cancer (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including GCK (glucokinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
