Angpt1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including liver regeneration; response to estrogen; and response to vitamin B3. Located in extracellular space. Biomarker of gastric ulcer; in situ carcinoma; myocardial infarction; nephrosis; and pulmonary hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in alcohol dependence; brain ischemia; diabetic retinopathy; hereditary angioedema; and hypertension. Orthologous to human ANGPT1 (angiopoietin 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 Angpt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
