Arfip1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate binding activity. Predicted to be involved in intracellular protein transport; negative regulation of retrograde transport, endosome to Golgi; and regulation of Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin nucleation. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of protein secretion. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane and cytosol. Predicted to be active in trans-Golgi network membrane. Orthologous to human ARFIP1 (ARF interacting protein 1). [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 Arfip1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Arfaptin-like domain
- protein binding
- Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs domain
- phosphatidylinositol binding
