Dvl3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of neuron projection arborization and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Predicted to be located in chromatin and cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of Wnt signalosome. Predicted to be active in cytosol and glutamatergic synapse. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant Robinow syndrome 3 and lung cancer. Orthologous to human DVL3 (dishevelled segment polarity protein 3).

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 Dvl3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Domain found in Dishevelled, Egl-10, and Pleckstrin (DEP)
  • Domain present in PSD-95, Dlg, and ZO-1/2
  • DIX domain
  • frizzled binding
  • protease binding
  • beta-catenin binding
  • protein binding activity, bridging
  • canonical PDZ domain
  • enzyme binding
