Palm Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable D3 dopamine receptor binding activity. Involved in regulation of postsynapse assembly. Located in several cellular components, including apicolateral plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and dendritic spine membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Orthologous to human PALM (paralemmin). [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 Palm often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
