Gstp1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables protein kinase binding activity and toxic substance binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to cell-matrix adhesion; cellular response to epidermal growth factor stimulus; and negative regulation of smooth muscle cell chemotaxis. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be part of TRAF2-GSTP1 complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Biomarker of cholestasis; pre-malignant neoplasm; prostate carcinoma in situ; prostatic hypertrophy; and urinary bladder cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including allergic disease (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); reproductive organ cancer (multiple); and respiratory system disease (multiple). Orthologous to human GSTP1 (glutathione S-transferase pi 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 Gstp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
