Vnn1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable pantetheine hydrolase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including coenzyme A catabolic process; positive regulation of T cell differentiation in thymus; and positive regulation of oxidative stress-induced intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane and side of membrane. Orthologous to human VNN1 (vanin 1). [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 Vnn1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
