Net1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to hydrogen peroxide; positive regulation of GTPase activity; and positive regulation of Rho protein signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within myoblast migration. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human NET1 (neuroepithelial cell transforming 1).

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 Net1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
