Myorg Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable hydrolase activity, hydrolyzing O-glycosyl compounds. Predicted to be involved in skeletal muscle fiber development. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of insulin-like growth factor receptor signaling pathway and positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nuclear membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in basal ganglia calcification. Orthologous to human MYORG (myogenesis regulating glycosidase). [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 Myorg often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- Glycosyl hydrolases family 31
- Alpha amylase catalytic domain family
