Camk1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity and calmodulin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including nucleocytoplasmic transport; positive regulation of protein export from nucleus; and protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; glutamatergic synapse; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including bone; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; nervous system; and retina. Orthologous to human CAMK1 (calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase I). [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 Camk1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
