Dok7 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables phosphatidylinositol binding activity; protein kinase binding activity; and signaling adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of Rac protein signal transduction; positive regulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity; and positive regulation of skeletal muscle acetylcholine-gated channel clustering. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including Rac protein signal transduction; neuromuscular junction development; and protein localization to membrane. Is active in neuromuscular junction and postsynaptic membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; heart; musculature; and testis. Used to study congenital myasthenic syndrome 10. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome 10 and fetal akinesia deformation sequence syndrome 3. Orthologous to human DOK7 (docking protein 7). [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 Dok7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- protein kinase binding
