Ptk7 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable non-membrane spanning protein tyrosine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to retinoic acid; positive regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; and positive regulation of neuron projection development. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cochlea morphogenesis; heart development; and morphogenesis of an epithelium. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell-cell junction; cytosol; and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human PTK7 (protein tyrosine kinase 7 (inactive)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Ptk7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
