Sik3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including microtubule cytoskeleton organization; positive regulation of TOR signaling; and protein phosphorylation. Predicted to act upstream of or within endochondral bone morphogenesis; limb morphogenesis; and regulation of protein localization. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human SIK3 (SIK family kinase 3). [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 Sik3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
