Rs1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate binding activity and phospholipid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within retina layer formation and visual perception. Located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; neuron to neuron synapse; and photoreceptor inner segment. Part of protein-containing complex. Is active in cell surface. Is expressed in eye. Used to study X-linked juvenile retinoschisis 1. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked juvenile retinoschisis 1 and retinoschisis. Orthologous to human RS1 (retinoschisin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Rs1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
