Cst11 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable cysteine-type endopeptidase inhibitor activity. Predicted to be involved in androgen receptor signaling pathway; defense response to Gram-negative bacterium; and killing of cells of another organism. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including nucleus; sperm flagellum; and sperm head. Orthologous to human CST11 (cystatin 11).

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 Cst11 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
