Pgk1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables ADP binding activity; ATP binding activity; and phosphoglycerate kinase activity. Involved in gluconeogenesis and glycolytic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular space; membrane raft; and mitochondrial matrix. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hemolytic anemia and phosphoglycerate kinase 1 deficiency. Orthologous to human PGK1 (phosphoglycerate kinase 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 Pgk1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
