Sema3c Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable chemorepellent activity; neuropilin binding activity; and semaphorin receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chordate embryonic development; circulatory system development; and mesenchymal cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including blood vessel remodeling; dichotomous subdivision of terminal units involved in salivary gland branching; and heart development. Predicted to be active in extracellular space and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human SEMA3C (semaphorin 3C). [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 Sema3c often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
