Arhgap29 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity; glycerophospholipid flippase activity; and retinal binding activity. Predicted to be involved in phospholipid translocation and retinal metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within phospholipid transfer to membrane; photoreceptor cell maintenance; and visual perception. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic vesicle; endoplasmic reticulum; and photoreceptor outer segment. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in fundus dystrophy and retinal degeneration (multiple). Orthologous to human ABCA4 (ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 4).

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 Arhgap29 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • RhoGAP domain
  • Ezrin/radixin/moesin, alpha-helical domain
  • protein kinase C conserved region 1 (C1 domain) superfamily
  • GTPase activator
  • protein binding
  • GTPase Activating Protein domain
  • Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs domain
  • GTPase-activator protein for Rho-like GTPases
  • RhoGAP
  • PDZ-domain binding
