Gas7 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in clathrin coat assembly; clathrin-dependent endocytosis; and neuron projection morphogenesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within actin filament organization; neuron differentiation; and regulation of cell shape. Predicted to be located in actin filament and ruffle. Predicted to be active in clathrin-coated pit; clathrin-coated vesicle; and plasma membrane. Orthologous to human GAS7 (growth arrest specific 7).

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 Gas7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
