Ttc9 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein folding chaperone. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of apoptotic process and protein folding. Predicted to act upstream of or within bone development. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including cytosol; endomembrane system; and mitochondrial envelope. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in opiate dependence. Orthologous to human TTC9 (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 9). [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 Ttc9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
