Rab43 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable GTPase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including autophagosome assembly; phagosome maturation; and retrograde transport, plasma membrane to Golgi. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to type II interferon. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and phagocytic vesicle. Predicted to be active in endomembrane system. Orthologous to human RAB43 (RAB43, member RAS oncogene family). [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 Rab43 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
