Parp1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables several functions, including NAD+ poly-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity; R-SMAD binding activity; and enzyme binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amyloid-beta; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Located in nucleus. Used to study congestive heart failure; middle cerebral artery infarction; and transient cerebral ischemia. Biomarker of several diseases, including borna disease; cerebrovascular disease (multiple); kidney failure; perinatal necrotizing enterocolitis; and ureteral obstruction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including arthritis; bacterial meningitis; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); stomach carcinoma; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PARP1 (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 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 Parp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
