Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * The CHKB gene is located on chromosome 15q26.1. * It is a single-exon gene encoding a protein of 414 amino acids. * The protein is expressed in a variety of cell types, including retinal ganglion cells, cardiac muscle myoblasts, and cerebral cortex neurons. **Pathways and functions:** * The CHKB gene is a key enzyme in the choline kinase pathway, which is responsible for the synthesis and degradation of choline. * Choline is a precursor to numerous bioactive molecules, including ethanolamine, which is involved in cell signaling and membrane trafficking. * The choline kinase pathway is important for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing the accumulation of toxic substances. * Dysregulation of the CHKB gene can lead to a variety of diseases, including retinal disorders, cardiac disease, and neurodevelopmental disorders. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the CHKB gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including: * Retinal disorders, such as macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa * Cardiac disease, such as hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis * Neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism and schizophrenia * Inhibition of the CHKB enzyme has been shown to be a potential therapeutic strategy for these diseases.
