Itm2c Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and amyloid-beta binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of amyloid precursor protein biosynthetic process; negative regulation of neuron projection development; and positive regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in lysosome and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human ITM2C (integral membrane protein 2C).

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 Itm2c often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
