Znrf1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of autophagosome-lysosome fusion; positive regulation of toll-like receptor 4 signaling pathway; and protein K48-linked ubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytosol and endosome. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; intracellular membrane-bounded organelle; and membrane. Orthologous to human ZNRF1 (zinc and ring finger 1).

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 Znrf1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
