Rs1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate binding activity and phospholipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in protein homooligomerization. Predicted to act upstream of or within retina layer formation and visual perception. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including external side of plasma membrane; neuron to neuron synapse; and photoreceptor inner segment. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in cell surface. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked juvenile retinoschisis 1 and retinoschisis. Orthologous to human RS1 (retinoschisin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Rs1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
