Rnf43 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable frizzled binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including Wnt receptor catabolic process; stem cell proliferation; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in endometrial cancer; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); irritable bowel syndrome; lung adenocarcinoma; and villous adenoma. Orthologous to human RNF43 (ring finger protein 43). [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 Rnf43 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
