PNKD Gene Summary [Human]

This gene is thought to play a role in the regulation of myofibrillogenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the movement disorder paroxysmal non-kinesigenic dyskinesia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]

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 human PNKD often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase
  • Domain of unknown function (DUF4748)
  • Metallo-beta-lactamase superfamily
  • Hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase C-terminus
  • protein binding
  • metallo-hydrolase-like_MBL-fold
