Srr Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables several functions, including heterocyclic compound binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in alpha-amino acid metabolic process; response to ketamine; and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Located in apical part of cell. Orthologous to human SRR (serine racemase).

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 Srr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
