LRRK1 leucine rich repeat kinase 1

Gene ID: 79705, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: OSMD; RIPK6; Roco1

Summary

This gene encodes a multi-domain protein that is a leucine-rich repeat kinase and a GDP/GTP binding protein. The encoded protein is thought to play a role in the regulation of bone mass. Mice lacking a similar gene showed severe osteopetrosis, increased bone mineralization and decreased bone resorption. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017]
