{"symbol":"PPIP5K1","synonyms":["HSVIP1","HISPPD2A","VIP1","IP6K","IPS1"],"name":"diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate kinase 1","description":"This gene encodes a dual functional inositol kinase. The encoded enzyme converts inositol hexakisphosphate to diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate and diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate to bis-diphosphoinositol tetrakisphosphate. This protein may be important for intracellular signaling pathways. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 15.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":9677,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/9677","proteins":[{"symbol":"VIP1_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/VIP1_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[]}
