Yif1a Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to be involved in endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including COPII-coated ER to Golgi transport vesicle; Golgi membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Is expressed in diaphragm; extensor digitorum longus; heart; soleus; and tibialis anterior. Orthologous to human YIF1A (Yip1 interacting factor homolog A, membrane trafficking protein).

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 mouse Yif1a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
