Rab13 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables protein kinase A catalytic subunit binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to insulin stimulus; establishment of Sertoli cell barrier; and protein kinase A signaling. Located in insulin-responsive compartment. Orthologous to human RAB13 (RAB13, member RAS oncogene family). [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 Rab13 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
