Summary: Enables adenosine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including adenosine metabolic process; circadian regulation of gene expression; and type B pancreatic cell proliferation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Used to study brain infarction. Biomarker of temporal lobe epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypermethioninemia due to adenosine kinase deficiency. Orthologous to human ADK (adenosine kinase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

ADK was associated with astrogliosis after TBI, its inhibition in reactive astrocytes ameliorated astrogliosis-induced neuronal death. Our findings extended the current knowledge on the role of ADK in astrogliosis, and also provided new evidence for the TBI treatment.

In the developing cochlea, ADK is strongly expressed in multiple cell types at birth and reaches its peak level of expression at postnatal day 21; it is involved in purine salvage pathways for nucleotide synthesis in the adult cochlea.

The reaction catalyzed by adenosine kinase (adenosine + ATP --> AMP + ADP) can be easily reversed when coupled with adenosine deaminase, which transforms adenosine into inosine and ammonia.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
