Etv5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in male germ-line stem cell asymmetric division; positive regulation of glial cell proliferation; and positive regulation of neuron differentiation. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human ETV5 (ETS variant transcription factor 5). [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 Etv5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
