Itfg2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to be involved in cellular response to amino acid starvation; cellular response to glucose starvation; and negative regulation of TORC1 signaling. Predicted to act upstream of or within germinal center B cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; lysosomal membrane; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of KICSTOR complex. Orthologous to human ITFG2 (integrin alpha FG-GAP repeat containing 2). [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 Itfg2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
