Anks1b Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable ephrin receptor binding activity. Involved in postsynapse to nucleus signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within receptor localization to synapse. Is active in several cellular components, including hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse; postsynaptic density, intracellular component; and presynaptic cytosol. Orthologous to human ANKS1B (ankyrin repeat and sterile alpha motif domain containing 1B). [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 Anks1b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
