Tor1aip1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables lamin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in nuclear membrane organization; positive regulation of ATP-dependent activity; and protein localization to nucleus. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein localization to nuclear envelope. Located in nuclear envelope. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2Y. Orthologous to human TOR1AIP1 (torsin 1A interacting protein 1).

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 Tor1aip1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
