Pvr Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables virus receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity and regulation of leukocyte mediated cytotoxicity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell migration and cell-cell adhesion. Predicted to be located in cell surface and membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human PVR (PVR cell adhesion molecule). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Pvr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
