Agtr1a Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables D1 dopamine receptor binding activity; angiotensin type I receptor activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of metabolic process; and response to glucocorticoid. Located in several cellular components, including basolateral plasma membrane; organelle outer membrane; and recycling endosome. Used to study several diseases, including asthma; chronic kidney disease; congestive heart failure; hypertension (multiple); and nephritis. Biomarker of several diseases, including anti-basement membrane glomerulonephritis; artery disease (multiple); glomerulosclerosis (multiple); hyperinsulinism; and placental insufficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including COVID-19; artery disease (multiple); chronic kidney disease; neurodegenerative disease (multiple); and sarcoidosis. Orthologous to human AGTR1 (angiotensin II receptor 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 Agtr1a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
