Ripk4 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein serine kinase activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of NF-kappaB transcription factor activity; protein phosphorylation; and skin development. Predicted to be located in cytosol; intracellular membrane-bounded organelle; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human RIPK4 (receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Ripk4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
