Prkab1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to nutrient levels; positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis; and signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within nail development. Part of nucleotide-activated protein kinase complex. Orthologous to human PRKAB1 (protein kinase AMP-activated non-catalytic subunit beta 1).

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 rat Prkab1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
