Dnm1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables several functions, including D2 dopamine receptor binding activity; SH3 domain binding activity; and enzyme binding activity. Involved in G protein-coupled receptor internalization; positive regulation of synaptic vesicle endocytosis; and response to amyloid-beta. Located in Golgi apparatus; cytoplasmic vesicle; and varicosity. Part of protein-containing complex. Is active in presynaptic endocytic zone membrane. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 31A and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 31B. Orthologous to human DNM1 (dynamin 1).

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 Dnm1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
