Putative protein kinase; overexpression increases sodium and lithium tolerance, whereas gene disruption increases cation and low pH sensitivity and impairs potassium uptake, suggesting a role in regulation of Trk1p and/or Trk2p transporters; HAL5 has a paralog, KKQ8, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003701]
Chromosome X: 106,894-109,461 reverse strand.
R64-1-1:BK006943.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 195 orthologues, 19 paralogues and is a member of 1 Ensembl protein family.
