Pacs1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable transmembrane transporter binding activity. Predicted to be involved in lymphocyte homeostasis and protein localization to plasma membrane. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein localization to Golgi apparatus. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Schuurs-Hoeijmakers Syndrome. Orthologous to human PACS1 (phosphofurin acidic cluster sorting protein 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 Pacs1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
