CRACR2A Gene Summary [Human]

Enables GTPase activity and calcium ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including activation of store-operated calcium channel activity; positive regulation of JNK cascade; and store-operated calcium entry. Located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; Weibel-Palade body; and immunological synapse. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human CRACR2A often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
