pdhk-2 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring) kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of glucose metabolic process. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Expressed in head neurons; intestine; pharynx; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease X-linked dominant 6. Is an ortholog of human PDK1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1) and PDK4 (pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4).
