Seriously, you can get here from the disambiguation page for Fuck and there's nothing about this enzyme's vulgar abbreviation?? Is this for real? Chemists, help! Psychlohexane (talk) 05:19, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
fucK is not an abbreviation for the enzyme itself; it is actually the name for the gene that encodes this enzyme. These names tend to be 4 letters/numbers and they have to be related to the protein they code for, that's why the name ended up being fucK. I have edited the article to reflect this and have provided a source for this information. Abc30 (talk) 14:39, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
