Ssx2ip Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables protein domain specific binding activity. Predicted to be involved in centrosome cycle and intraciliary transport involved in cilium assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of Rac protein signal transduction and regulation of cell motility. Located in adherens junction. Orthologous to human SSX2IP (SSX family member 2 interacting protein). [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 Ssx2ip often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
