Bcar3 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable kinase binding activity and phosphotyrosine residue binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway; endothelin receptor signaling pathway; and positive regulation of GTPase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within lens morphogenesis in camera-type eye and positive regulation of peptidyl-serine phosphorylation. Predicted to be located in focal adhesion and membrane. Orthologous to human BCAR3 (BCAR3 adaptor protein, NSP family member). [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 Bcar3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
