Prag1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of neuron projection development; positive regulation of Rho protein signal transduction; and regulation of cell shape. Located in cytoplasm and focal adhesion. Orthologous to human PRAG1 (PEAK1 related, kinase-activating pseudokinase 1). [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 Prag1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
