Symplekin is a protein
Protein
Proteins are biochemical compounds consisting of one or more polypeptides typically folded into a globular or fibrous form, facilitating a biological function. A polypeptide is a single linear polymer chain of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of...

 that in humans is encoded by the SYMPK gene
Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Interactions

SYMPK has been shown to interact
Protein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...

 with CSTF2
CSTF2
Cleavage stimulation factor 64 kDa subunit is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CSTF2 gene.-Interactions:CSTF2 has been shown to interact with CSTF3, SUB1, SYMPK, BARD1 and BRCA1.-Further reading:...

 and HSF1
HSF1
Heat shock factor protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSF1 gene.-Function:The product of this gene is a heat-shock transcription factor. Transcription of heat-shock genes is rapidly induced after temperature stress...
