Pdpk1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway; negative regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process; and type B pancreatic cell development. Acts upstream of or within hyperosmotic response. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; gonad; hemolymphoid system gland; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer. Orthologous to several human genes including PDPK1 (3-phosphoinositide dependent protein kinase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 Pdpk1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
