Add1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables T cell receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to retinoic acid; negative regulation of actin filament polymerization; and positive regulation of angiogenesis. Located in dendritic spine and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Used to study hypertension. Biomarker of temporal lobe epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in IgA glomerulonephritis; artery disease (multiple); familial combined hyperlipidemia; and gastroschisis. Orthologous to human ADD1 (adducin 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 Add1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
