Ppfia1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of stress fiber assembly. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including axon; dendrite; and focal adhesion. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; presynaptic active zone; and spine apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including blood vessel endothelium; central nervous system; genitourinary system; retina; and spleen. Orthologous to human PPFIA1 (PTPRF interacting protein alpha 1). [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 Ppfia1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
