Ywhah Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including nuclear glucocorticoid receptor binding activity; protein heterodimerization activity; and transmembrane transporter binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including glucocorticoid catabolic process; nuclear receptor-mediated glucocorticoid signaling pathway; and substantia nigra development. Predicted to act upstream of or within intracellular protein transport and negative regulation of dendrite morphogenesis. Is active in synapse. Orthologous to human YWHAH (tyrosine 3-monooxygenase/tryptophan 5-monooxygenase activation protein eta). [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 Ywhah often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
