Sla2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable signaling adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of T cell receptor signaling pathway; negative regulation of calcium-mediated signaling; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; late endosome; and nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human SLA2 (Src like adaptor 2).

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 Sla2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
