Ppp4r3a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable protein phosphatase activator activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of gluconeogenesis and protein dephosphorylation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of protein phosphatase 4 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; heart; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human PPP4R3A (protein phosphatase 4 regulatory subunit 3A). [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 Ppp4r3a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
