Pdp1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables calcium ion binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in peptidyl-threonine dephosphorylation and signal transduction. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity and pyruvate decarboxylase deficiency. Orthologous to human PDP1 (pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase catalytic subunit 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 Pdp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
