Sall3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within limb morphogenesis; negative regulation of smoothened signaling pathway; and olfactory bulb interneuron development. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human SALL3 (spalt like transcription factor 3). [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 Sall3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
