Sema4g Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable chemorepellent activity; neuropilin binding activity; and semaphorin receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including axon guidance; neural crest cell migration; and semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human SEMA4G (semaphorin 4G). [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 Sema4g often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.

- Plexin repeat
- immunoglobulin domain
- Immunoglobulin like
- protein binding
- Sema domain
- The Sema domain, a protein interacting module, of semaphorins and plexins
