{"symbol":"IP6K3","synonyms":["IHPK3","INSP6K3"],"name":"inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 3","description":"This gene encodes a protein that belongs to the inositol phosphokinase (IPK) family. This protein is likely responsible for the conversion of inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6) to diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (InsP7/PP-InsP5). It may also convert 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (InsP5) to PP-InsP4. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2008]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":117283,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/117283","proteins":[{"symbol":"IP6K3_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/IP6K3_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[]}
