Tor4a Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and ATP hydrolysis activity. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoplasm; endomembrane system; and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum lumen and nuclear envelope. Orthologous to human TOR4A (torsin family 4 member A). [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 Tor4a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
