About Prkra

Summary

Predicted to enable RNA binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to oxidative stress; ear morphogenesis; and positive regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RISC-loading complex. Is expressed in several structures, including 4-cell stage embryo; central nervous system; olfactory epithelium; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dystonia 16. Orthologous to human PRKRA (protein activator of interferon induced protein kinase EIF2AK2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
