Myg1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable 3'-5'-RNA exonuclease activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA processing; mitochondrial RNA metabolic process; and rRNA processing. Predicted to act upstream of or within locomotory exploration behavior. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in mitochondrial matrix; nucleolus; and nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human MYG1 (MYG1 exonuclease). [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 Myg1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
