Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

KN motif and ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KANK1 gene.[5][6][7]

Quick Facts KANK1, Identifiers ...

This gene encodes a protein containing four ankyrin repeat domains in its C-terminus. The suggested role for this protein is in tumorigenesis of renal cell carcinoma. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.[7]
