Olr1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and low-density lipoprotein particle receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including lipoprotein metabolic process; negative regulation of miRNA transcription; and response to hydrogen peroxide. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Biomarker of end stage renal disease and hypertension. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebral amyloid angiopathy; coronary artery disease; and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human OLR1 (oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 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 Olr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • C-type lectin (CTL)/C-type lectin-like (CTLD) domain
  • Ezrin/radixin/moesin, alpha-helical domain
  • Growth-arrest specific micro-tubule binding
  • Lectin C-type domain
  • Ly49-like protein, N-terminal region
  • low-density lipoprotein receptor
  • protein binding
  • identical protein binding
  • Apolipoprotein A1/A4/E domain
  • transmembrane receptor
