Aimp1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including GTPase binding activity; cytokine activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in blood vessel morphogenesis and defense response to virus. Predicted to be located in cell surface; cytosol; and extracellular space. Predicted to be part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Biomarker of myocardial infarction and neurodegenerative disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 3. Orthologous to human AIMP1 (aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional protein 1).

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 Aimp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
