Rtraf Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable RNA binding activity; RNA polymerase II complex binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of protein kinase activity; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and tRNA splicing, via endonucleolytic cleavage and ligation. Predicted to be located in microtubule cytoskeleton; nucleoplasm; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of tRNA-splicing ligase complex. Orthologous to human RTRAF (RNA transcription, translation and transport factor). [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 rat Rtraf often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
