Nos1ap Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables nitric-oxide synthase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in postsynaptic actin cytoskeleton organization; regulation of heart rate by chemical signal; and regulation of ventricular cardiac muscle cell membrane repolarization. Located in Z disc; mitochondrion; and sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. Colocalizes with T-tubule and caveola. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; gallbladder; genitourinary system; spinal cord; and trachea. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephrotic syndrome type 22. Orthologous to human NOS1AP (nitric oxide synthase 1 adaptor protein). [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 Nos1ap often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
