Tbc1d20 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable GTPase activator activity and small GTPase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including COPII-coated vesicle cargo loading; positive regulation by host of viral genome replication; and positive regulation by virus of viral protein levels in host cell. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including acrosome assembly; lens fiber cell morphogenesis; and seminiferous tubule development. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and nuclear membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Warburg micro syndrome 4. Orthologous to human TBC1D20 (TBC1 domain family member 20). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Tbc1d20 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Rab-GTPase-TBC domain
  • Domain in Tre-2, BUB2p, and Cdc16p
  • enzyme binding
  • GTPase activator
  • protein binding
