Validated All-in-One™ qPCR Primer for QKI(NM_006775.2) Search again
By default, qPCR primer pairs are designed to measure the expression level of the splice variant (accession number) you selected for this gene WITHOUT consideration of other possible variants of this gene. If this gene has multiple variants, and you would like to measure the expression levels of one particular variant, multiple variants, or all variants, please contact us for a custom service project at inquiry@genecopoeia.com.

Summary
QKI belongs to a family of RNA-binding proteins that have an HNRNPK (MIM 600712) homology (KH) domain embedded in a 200-amino acid region called the GSG domain. Other members of this family include SAM68 (KHDRBS1; MIM 602489) and SF1 (MIM 601516) (Chen and Richard, 1998 [PubMed 9671495]). QKI proteins regulate RNA splicing, export of target RNAs from the nucleus, translation of proteins, and RNA stability (Lauriat et al., 2008 [PubMed 17918747]).[supplied by OMIM].
Gene References into function
- There are many isoforms of this RNA binding protein. QKI-6 has been shown to be a translational repressor.
- QKI as a possible target for functional studies related to the role of myelination in schizophrenia.
- QKI levels may regulate oligodendrocyte differentiation and maturation in human brain
- Since QKI plays a fundamental role in oligodendrocyte differentiation and in myelination, its underexpression may be pivotal to, and upstream of, other myelin-associated gene expression abnormalities in schizophrenia.
- QKI-6 is the major protein isoform responsible for central nervous system (CNS) myelination, which promotes myelin basic protein expression in oligodendrocytes.
- biological functions attributed to this KH-type RNA binding protein and the recent achievements linking it to human disorders
- we examined expression of QKI and several putative mRNA targets of QKI in human PFC and hippocampus at different ages
