Anxa1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables several functions, including identical protein binding activity; nucleic acid conformation isomerase activity; and phospholipase A2 inhibitor activity. Contributes to single-stranded DNA binding activity and single-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including estrous cycle; hepatocyte differentiation; and peptide hormone secretion. Located in extracellular space; mast cell granule; and mitochondrial membrane. Part of protein-containing complex. Is active in synaptic membrane. Used to study acute kidney failure; brain ischemia; pleurisy; and uveitis. Biomarker of several diseases, including carcinoma (multiple); cerebral infarction; eye disease (multiple); hyperthyroidism; and pulmonary fibrosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in brain ischemia and pancreatic cancer. Orthologous to human ANXA1 (annexin A1). [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 Anxa1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
