| Gene Symbol | PCK2 |
| Entrez Gene ID | 5106 |
| Full Name | phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 2, mitochondrial |
| Synonyms | PEPCK,PEPCK-M,PEPCK2 |
| General protein information |
|
| Gene Type | protein-coding |
| Organism | Homo sapiens(human) |
| Genome | |
| Summary | This gene encodes a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate in the presence of guanosine triphosphate (GTP). A cytosolic form of this protein is encoded by a different gene and is the key enzyme of gluconeogenesis in the liver. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.
