Igf2bp3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable N6-methyladenosine-containing RNA reader activity; mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity; and mRNA 5'-UTR binding activity. Predicted to be involved in CRD-mediated mRNA stabilization and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in P-body and cytoplasmic stress granule. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Orthologous to human IGF2BP3 (insulin like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 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 Igf2bp3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
