Mark1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Involved in establishment of mitochondrion localization; regulation of dendrite development; and regulation of postsynapse assembly. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Is expressed in dorsal root ganglion; facial ganglion; glossopharyngeal ganglion; and trigeminal ganglion. Orthologous to human MARK1 (microtubule affinity regulating kinase 1).

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 Mark1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
