Gopc Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including frizzled binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of anion channel activity and negative regulation of protein localization to cell surface. Predicted to act upstream of or within spermatid nucleus differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; plasma membrane; and synapse. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus; membrane; and trans-Golgi network transport vesicle. Orthologous to human GOPC (golgi associated PDZ and coiled-coil motif containing).

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