F2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including heparin binding activity; lipopolysaccharide binding activity; and serine-type endopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to mechanical stimulus; response to thyrotropin-releasing hormone; and response to thyroxine. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and extracellular space. Used to study several diseases, including atherosclerosis; end stage renal disease; hyperhomocysteinemia; obesity; and thrombophilia (multiple). Biomarker of bacterial pneumonia; brain edema; calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis; and thrombosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including appendicitis; artery disease (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); hemophilia (multiple); and thrombophilia (multiple). Orthologous to human F2 (coagulation factor II, thrombin). [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 F2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
