Gene: WNK1 (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1)  Homo sapiens

Symbol: WNK1
Name: WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1
Description: This gene encodes a member of the WNK subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein may be a key regulator of blood pressure by controlling the transport of sodium and chloride ions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with pseudohypoaldosteronism type II and hereditary sensory neuropathy type II. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described but the full-length nature of all of them has yet to be determined.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
Type: protein-coding
RefSeq Status: REVIEWED
