Mpi Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable mannose-6-phosphate isomerase activity. Predicted to be involved in GDP-D-mannose biosynthetic process from fructose-6-phosphate and mannose to fructose-6-phosphate catabolic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carbohydrate metabolic disorder and congenital disorder of glycosylation Ib. Orthologous to human MPI (mannose phosphate isomerase).

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