Gpr108 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of toll-like receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within defense response to virus; protein catabolic process; and type I interferon-mediated signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in cis-Golgi network membrane and trans-Golgi network. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus and membrane. Orthologous to human GPR108 (G protein-coupled receptor 108).

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 Gpr108 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
