Sorbs1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables enzyme binding activity; insulin receptor binding activity; and signaling receptor complex adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including focal adhesion assembly; insulin receptor signaling pathway; and positive regulation of biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within acetylcholine receptor signaling pathway and regulation of skeletal muscle acetylcholine-gated channel clustering. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; nuclear matrix; and stress fiber. Part of flotillin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch mandibular component; alimentary system; central nervous system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human SORBS1 (sorbin and SH3 domain containing 1).

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 Sorbs1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
