Fank1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to be involved in regulation of DNA-templated transcription and regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including chromatin; ciliary basal body; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in ciliary base and nucleus. Orthologous to human FANK1 (fibronectin type III and ankyrin repeat domains 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 Fank1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
