Pdxk - pyridoxal (pyridoxine, vitamin B6) kinase

Predicted to enable several functions, including anion binding activity; cation binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of apoptotic process and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate salvage. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; limb; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PDXK (pyridoxal kinase).
