pkn2l.7

This is the community wiki page for the Xenopus pkn2l.7 genes. Please feel free to add any information here, that is relevant to these genes and is not already captured elsewhere in Xenbase.

nomenclature changes

13 JULY 2023 Xenopus gene symbol was updated from LOC101734218 to pkn2l.7

Xenopus gene named was updated from serine/threonine-protein kinase N2 to protein kinase N2 like gene 7

This name update was informed by a DIOPT/EggNog analysis of the protein accession, which matched this gene with a large homology group of protein kinase N2 genes ( including >150 seqs from X. tropicalis with genes annotated as pkn1, pkn2, pkn3, prkcq and prkch).

orthology

note that true orthologs of human PKN2 are found on chromosome 4, while this string of tandemly duplicates of Xenopus pkn2-like genes are on chromosome 8.
