Bves Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable cAMP binding activity and structural molecule activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of receptor recycling; response to ischemia; and substrate adhesion-dependent cell spreading. Predicted to act upstream of or within hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation; regulation of heart rate; and sinoatrial node cell development. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including bicellular tight junction; caveola; and lateral plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in sarcolemma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2X. Orthologous to human POPDC1 (popeye domain cAMP effector 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 Bves often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
