Ttc5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity; chromatin binding activity; and ribosome binding activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA damage response; cellular response to starvation; and positive regulation of mRNA catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytosol; mitochondrion; and nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human TTC5 (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 5).

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 Ttc5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
