About Pak6

Chromosome 2: 118,493,784-118,528,501 forward strand.GRCm39:CM000995.3

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 260 orthologues, 35 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Broad expression in adrenal adult (RPKM 13.2), CNS E18 (RPKM 12.7) and 18 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within learning or memory; locomotory behavior; and neuron projection morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in cell junction; fibrillar center; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in central nervous system; retina; submandibular gland primordium; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in clear cell renal cell carcinoma. Orthologous to several human genes including BUB1B-PAK6 (BUB1B-PAK6 readthrough). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
