Evl Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable SH3 domain binding activity and profilin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of epithelial cell migration; negative regulation of ruffle assembly; and regulation of actin filament organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to type II interferon. Predicted to be located in lamellipodium and phagocytic vesicle. Predicted to be active in focal adhesion and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human EVL (Enah/Vasp-like). [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 Evl often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
