Nek10 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including mucociliary clearance; positive regulation of protein phosphorylation; and regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be part of protein kinase complex. Is expressed in brain and female reproductive system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ciliary dyskinesia 44. Orthologous to human NEK10 (NIMA related kinase 10). [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 Nek10 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
