Tpt1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and calcium ion binding activity. Involved in spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including microtubule cytoskeleton; multivesicular body; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to several human genes including TPT1 (tumor protein, translationally-controlled 1). [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 Tpt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
