**Semantic type:** Gene or Genome

**Definition:** Human PAK3 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of Xq23 and is approximately 283 kb in length. This allele, which encodes serine/threonine-protein kinase PAK 3 protein, plays a role in small G protein-mediated signaling. Mutation of the gene is associated with X-linked mental retardation type 30/47.
