Ankrd17 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including defense response to other organism; positive regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle; and positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within blood vessel maturation and negative regulation of smooth muscle cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin and nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to human ANKRD17 (ankyrin repeat domain 17). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Ankrd17 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
