Septin6 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable GTPase activity and molecular adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in cytoskeleton-dependent cytokinesis and protein localization. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cleavage furrow; septin collar; and sperm annulus. Predicted to be part of septin complex. Predicted to be active in cell division site; cytoskeleton; and presynapse. Orthologous to human SEPTIN6 (septin 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 Septin6 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
