Tex264 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable signaling receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in protein-DNA covalent cross-linking repair and reticulophagy. Predicted to be located in cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including autophagosome membrane; endoplasmic reticulum membrane; and replication fork. Orthologous to human TEX264 (testis expressed 264, ER-phagy receptor). [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 Tex264 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
