Dnajb9 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable Hsp70 protein binding activity and misfolded protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including ERAD pathway; negative regulation of IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response; and positive regulation of immunoglobulin production. Located in cytoplasm and nucleolus. Orthologous to human DNAJB9 (DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member B9). [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 Dnajb9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
