Pdzk1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable PDZ domain binding activity; protein-membrane adaptor activity; and scavenger receptor binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of protein targeting to membrane; protein localization to plasma membrane; and regulation of monoatomic anion transport. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Located in brush border membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; liver; lung; thymus; and white fat. Orthologous to several human genes including PDZK1 (PDZ domain containing 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 Pdzk1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
