Exoc5 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable small GTPase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in Golgi to plasma membrane transport; exocytosis; and protein localization to plasma membrane. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a negative effect on epithelial cell apoptotic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within establishment of planar polarity; negative regulation of apoptotic process; and non-motile cilium assembly. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and midbody. Predicted to be part of exocyst. Orthologous to human EXOC5 (exocyst complex component 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Exoc5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
