Sidt2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including AP-1 adaptor complex binding activity; AP-2 adaptor complex binding activity; and RNA transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in RNA catabolic process and RNA transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including regulation of insulin secretion involved in cellular response to glucose stimulus; type B pancreatic cell development; and type B pancreatic cell proliferation. Predicted to be located in lysosomal membrane. Predicted to be active in lysosome and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human SIDT2 (SID1 transmembrane family member 2).

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 Sidt2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
