Lman2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable D-mannose binding activity and heat shock protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport; positive regulation of phagocytosis; and retrograde vesicle-mediated transport, Golgi to endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; cytoplasmic vesicle; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including COPII-coated ER to Golgi transport vesicle; Golgi membrane; and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Orthologous to human LMAN2 (lectin, mannose binding 2). [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 Lman2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
