Pip5k1a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables 1-phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within fibroblast migration and phosphatidylinositol biosynthetic process. Located in cytosol; nucleus; and ruffle membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PIP5K1A (phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase type 1 alpha). [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 Pip5k1a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
