About Pak3

Primary_assembly X: 107,260,898-107,368,314 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026994.1

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 213 orthologues, 36 paralogues and is associated with 9 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 136.9), Testes (RPKM 64.9) and 2 other tissues.

Summary

Enables GTPase binding activity and protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of DNA biosynthetic process; positive regulation of dendritic spine morphogenesis; and positive regulation of fibroblast migration. Located in endosome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability 30. Orthologous to human PAK3 (p21 (RAC1) activated kinase 3).
