Proc Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables identical protein binding activity and oligopeptidase activity. Involved in liver development; negative regulation of blood coagulation; and protein catabolic process. Located in extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including antiphospholipid syndrome; central retinal vein occlusion; placental abruption; thrombophilia (multiple); and toxic shock syndrome. Orthologous to human PROC (protein C, inactivator of coagulation factors Va and VIIIa). [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 Proc often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
