Strap Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable U2 snRNP binding activity; mRNA binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome; maintenance of gastrointestinal epithelium; and neuron differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and negative regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be part of SMN complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in adenocarcinoma; colorectal carcinoma; large cell carcinoma; lung carcinoma; and squamous cell neoplasm. Orthologous to human STRAP (serine/threonine kinase receptor associated protein). [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 Strap often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
