Poldip2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of Rho guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity; positive regulation of focal adhesion assembly; and vascular associated smooth muscle cell proliferation. Located in cell-cell junction; midbody; and mitotic spindle. Orthologous to human POLDIP2 (DNA polymerase delta interacting protein 2). [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 Poldip2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
