Hpf1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including histone binding activity; poly-ADP-D-ribose binding activity; and protein ADP-ribosyltransferase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA repair-dependent chromatin remodeling and double-strand break repair. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus and site of DNA damage. Orthologous to human HPF1 (histone PARylation factor 1). [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 Hpf1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
