Btbd9 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in adult locomotory behavior; circadian behavior; and modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including circadian sleep/wake cycle, non-REM sleep; long-term memory; and multicellular organismal-level iron ion homeostasis. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and glutamatergic synapse. Orthologous to human BTBD9 (BTB domain containing 9). [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 Btbd9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
