Rab3gap1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable GTPase activator activity; guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity; and small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including excitatory postsynaptic potential; modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; and positive regulation of GTPase activity. Predicted to be located in cis-Golgi network; endoplasmic reticulum tubular network; and excitatory synapse. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Is expressed in several structures, including brain and neural retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Warburg micro syndrome 1. Orthologous to human RAB3GAP1 (RAB3 GTPase activating protein catalytic subunit 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Rab3gap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
