Map3k3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including blood vessel development; positive regulation of p38MAPK cascade; and protein autophosphorylation. Orthologous to human MAP3K3 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 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 Map3k3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
