Znfx1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including defense response to other organism; negative regulation of viral genome replication; and regulatory ncRNA-mediated heterochromatin formation. Predicted to be part of nuclear RNA-directed RNA polymerase complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasmic stress granule and mitochondrial outer membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 91. Orthologous to human ZNFX1 (zinc finger NFX1-type containing 1). [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 Znfx1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
