Dynlt1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables transmembrane transporter binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process; neuron projection development; and positive regulation of Rac protein signal transduction. Located in axonal growth cone; lamellipodium; and neuronal cell body. Orthologous to human DYNLT1 (dynein light chain Tctex-type 1). [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 Dynlt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
