Lats1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and nuclear estrogen receptor binding activity. Involved in regulation of postsynaptic density assembly. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Orthologous to human LATS1 (large tumor suppressor kinase 1).

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 Lats1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
