Prkab1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable protein kinase activity and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis. Acts upstream of or within nail development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; eye; genitourinary system; and hemolymphoid system. Orthologous to human PRKAB1 (protein kinase AMP-activated non-catalytic subunit beta 1). [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 Prkab1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
