About Prkcz

Primary_assembly 5: 165,819,466-165,930,367 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026978.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 205 orthologues, 9 paralogues and is associated with 23 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 18.1), Kidney (RPKM 59.9) and 7 other tissues.

Summary

Enables several functions, including 14-3-3 protein binding activity; Enzyme binding activity; and protein kinase C activity. Involved in several processes, including activation of Phospholipase D activity; activation of protein kinase B activity; and positive regulation of cell communication. Located in several cellular components, including membrane raft; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; and stress fiber. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; glutamatergic synapse; and postsynaptic density. Used to study hyperglycemia. Biomarker of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PRKCZ (protein kinase C zeta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
