Ap3d1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Involved in synaptic vesicle budding from endosome. Predicted to be located in axon. Predicted to be part of AP-3 adaptor complex. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including endosome; glutamatergic synapse; and terminal bouton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome. Orthologous to human AP3D1 (adaptor related protein complex 3 subunit delta 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 Ap3d1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
