Rhof Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable GTP binding activity; GTPase activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including actin filament organization; regulation of actin cytoskeleton organization; and signal transduction. Predicted to be active in cytosol and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human RHOF (ras homolog family member F, filopodia associated). [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 Rhof often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
