Sh3gl2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables several functions, including identical protein binding activity; protein kinase binding activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in several processes, including membrane bending; positive regulation of membrane tubulation; and vesicle scission. Located in presynapse. Is active in several cellular components, including Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse; and synaptic vesicle membrane. Orthologous to human SH3GL2 (SH3 domain containing GRB2 like 2, endophilin A1). [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 Sh3gl2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
