Brinp1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in cellular response to retinoic acid; central nervous system development; and negative regulation of mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including behavioral fear response; maternal behavior; and protein stabilization. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including dendrite; glutamatergic synapse; and neuronal cell body. Orthologous to human BRINP1 (BMP/retinoic acid inducible neural specific 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 Brinp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
