Palm Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables D3 dopamine receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to electrical stimulus; positive regulation of dendritic spine development; and positive regulation of filopodium assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adenylate cyclase-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of adenylate cyclase activity; and regulation of cell shape. Located in several cellular components, including filopodium; neuron spine; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; liver; nasal epithelium; nervous system; and renal cortex. Orthologous to human PALM (paralemmin).

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