Ttll5 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable tubulin binding activity and tubulin-glutamic acid ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in sperm axoneme assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including flagellated sperm motility; protein polyglutamylation; and retina development in camera-type eye. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including 9+0 non-motile cilium; centrosome; and cytosol. Predicted to be active in ciliary basal body. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cone-rod dystrophy 19. Orthologous to human TTLL5 (tubulin tyrosine ligase like 5). [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 Ttll5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • acid-D-amino acid ligase
  • Carbamoyl-phosphate synthase L chain, ATP binding domain
  • enzyme
