Gorab Gene Summary [Mouse]
Acts upstream of or within several processes, including dorsal/ventral neural tube patterning; hair follicle morphogenesis; and non-motile cilium assembly. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in brain. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in geroderma osteodysplasticum. Orthologous to human GORAB (golgin, RAB6 interacting).

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