Dpcd Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cilium movement involved in extracellular fluid movement; flagellated sperm motility; and ventricular system development. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Orthologous to human DPCD (deleted in primary ciliary dyskinesia homolog (mouse)). [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 Dpcd often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
