Pi4kb Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable 1-phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase activity and 14-3-3 protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in inner ear development; phosphatidylinositol phosphate biosynthetic process; and phosphatidylinositol-mediated signaling. Predicted to act upstream of or within lysosome organization. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including extraembryonic component; neural ectoderm; and vertebral axis musculature. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 87. Orthologous to human PI4KB (phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase beta).

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 Pi4kb often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
