Diablo Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to oxidative stress; neuron apoptotic process; and positive regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane and cytosol. Predicted to be part of CD40 receptor complex. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 64. Orthologous to human DIABLO (diablo IAP-binding mitochondrial protein).

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 Diablo often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
