Satb1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in chromatin remodeling and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including T cell activation; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and reflex. Predicted to be located in PML body; heterochromatin; and nuclear matrix. Orthologous to human SATB1 (SATB homeobox 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 Satb1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
