18481 Q61036 PAK3_MOUSE Serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 3 (EC 2.7.11.1) (Beta-PAK) (CDC42/RAC effector kinase PAK-B) (p21-activated kinase 3) (PAK-3) DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Mice show significant abnormalities in synaptic plasticity as well as deficiencies in learning and memory. Pak1 and Pak3 double knockout mice display reduced brains characterized by simplified neuronal dendrites/axons and reduced synapse density. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16014725, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21115725}.
