Dennd4c Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to insulin stimulus; protein localization to plasma membrane; and regulation of Rab protein signal transduction. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; cytosol; and insulin-responsive compartment. Predicted to be part of retromer complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasmic vesicle. Orthologous to human DENND4C (DENN domain containing 4C). [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 Dennd4c often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • DENN (AEX-3) domain
  • guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor
  • Stabilization of polarity axis
  • dDENN domain
