Pam Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including metal ion binding activity; peptidylamidoglycolate lyase activity; and peptidylglycine monooxygenase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including fatty acid primary amide biosynthetic process; peptide amidation; and response to zinc ion. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including perikaryon; secretory granule membrane; and trans-Golgi network. Predicted to be active in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; forelimb bud; limb interdigital region; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PAM (peptidylglycine alpha-amidating monooxygenase). [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 mouse Pam often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
