Ppp1r9a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including actin filament binding activity; enzyme binding activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within actin filament organization and calcium-mediated signaling. Located in cortical actin cytoskeleton; dendritic spine; and filopodium. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and skeletal muscle. Orthologous to human PPP1R9A (protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 9A). [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 Ppp1r9a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
