Angptl7 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of vasculature development involved in avascular cornea development in camera-type eye and regulation of extracellular matrix organization. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Orthologous to human ANGPTL7 (angiopoietin like 7).

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 Angptl7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
