Sorbs3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable vinculin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of stress fiber assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell-substrate adhesion; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and positive regulation of MAPK cascade. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; focal adhesion; and nucleus. Orthologous to human SORBS3 (sorbin and SH3 domain containing 3). [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 Sorbs3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
