Tmem98 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in several processes, including T-helper 1 cell differentiation; negative regulation of protein processing; and regulation of nervous system development. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane; extracellular exosome; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nanophthalmos. Orthologous to human TMEM98 (transmembrane protein 98). [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 Tmem98 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
