Pxk Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; actin binding activity; and phosphatidylinositol binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; negative regulation of ATP-dependent activity; and negative regulation of monoatomic ion transport. Predicted to be located in centriolar satellite; cytosol; and nucleus. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human PXK (PX domain containing serine/threonine kinase like). [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 rat Pxk often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
