LOC108348108 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables NF-kappaB binding activity and protease binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of release of cytochrome c from mitochondria; negative regulation of vasoconstriction; and positive regulation of T cell mediated cytotoxicity. Located in apical plasma membrane; basolateral plasma membrane; and membrane raft. Part of protein-containing complex. Biomarker of graft-versus-host disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including brain ischemia; obesity; toxic shock syndrome; type 2 diabetes mellitus; and urinary tract infection. Orthologous to human HSPA1B (heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 1B). [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 Loc108348108 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
