Blmh Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable aminopeptidase activity; cysteine-type peptidase activity; and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in homocysteine catabolic process and response to toxic substance. Predicted to act upstream of or within response to xenobiotic stimulus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human BLMH (bleomycin hydrolase). [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 Blmh often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
