Slc35d3 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable UDP-glucose transmembrane transporter activity; antiporter activity; and protein-macromolecule adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in UDP-glucose transmembrane transport; platelet dense granule organization; and positive regulation of autophagy. Predicted to act upstream of or within energy homeostasis and positive regulation of protein exit from endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be located in early endosome and endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus; early endosome membrane; and synaptic vesicle membrane. Orthologous to human SLC35D3 (solute carrier family 35 member D3).

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 Slc35d3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
