Tbxas1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable heme binding activity; hydroperoxy icosatetraenoate dehydratase activity; and thromboxane-A synthase activity. Involved in several processes, including intracellular chloride ion homeostasis; positive regulation of vasoconstriction; and response to ethanol. Predicted to be located in cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Used to study acute necrotizing pancreatitis; artery disease (multiple); brain infarction; glomerulonephritis (multiple); and thrombosis. Biomarker of hydronephrosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Ghosal hematodiaphyseal syndrome and cerebral infarction. Orthologous to human TBXAS1 (thromboxane A synthase 1).

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 Tbxas1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
