Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * KHK is a heterodimeric protein composed of two subunits, KHK1 and KHK2. * It is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. * KHK is expressed in a variety of cell types, including enterocytes, hepatocytes, and immune cells. * It is a key regulator of hepatic glucose metabolism, particularly under conditions of fasting or starvation. **Pathways and functions:** * KHK is involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism through its interaction with various signaling pathways. * It is a key regulator of glucose uptake into enterocytes, influencing the absorption of dietary sugars. * It also plays a role in the regulation of hepatic glucose production by promoting the phosphorylation of glucose-1-phosphate to glucose-6-phosphate. * KHK also regulates gluconeogenesis, the process by which non-carbohydrate sources are converted into glucose. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the KHK gene have been linked to several human diseases, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), type 2 diabetes, and obesity. * KHK inhibitors are being investigated as potential therapeutic agents for these diseases, as they could be used to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce hepatic fat accumulation. **Additional notes:** * KHK is a highly regulated gene, with its expression being tightly controlled by various factors, including nutrient availability, hormones, and signaling pathways. * It is a key regulator of hepatic metabolism, and its dysregulation can lead to various metabolic disorders.
