| Primary Identifier | IPR037317 | Type | Domain |
| Short Name | PKN1_HR1_2 |
| description | PKN1 is a serine/threonine protein kinase activated by the Rho family of small GTPases, and by fatty acids such as arachidonic and linoleic acids [, ]. It is expressed ubiquitously and is the most abundant PKN isoform in neurons []. PKN1 is implicated in a variety of functions including cytoskeletal reorganization, cardiac cell survival, cell adhesion, and glucose transport, among others [, ]. PKN1 contains three HR1 domains, a C2 domain, and a kinase domain.This entry represents the second HR1 domain of PKN1. HR1 domains are anti-parallel coiled-coil (ACC) domains that bind small GTPases from the Rho family; PKN1 binds the GTPases RhoA, RhoB, and RhoC, and can also interact weakly with Rac []. |
