Htra3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and serine-type endopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of BMP signaling pathway; negative regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway; and proteolysis. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Orthologous to human HTRA3 (HtrA serine peptidase 3). [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 Htra3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
