Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP01071
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name N-acetylgalactosamine kinase
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. GalNAc kinase
  2. Galactokinase 2
Gene Name GALK2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in galactokinase activity
Specific Function Acts on GalNAc. Also acts as a galactokinase when galactose is present at high concentrations. May be involved in a salvage pathway for the reutilization of free GalNAc derived from the degradation of complex carbohydrates.
