Map4k1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and MAP kinase kinase kinase kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including JNK cascade; cellular response to phorbol 13-acetate 12-myristate; and protein phosphorylation. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Used to study transient cerebral ischemia. Orthologous to human MAP4K1 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 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 Map4k1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
