Fmnl3 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable GTPase activating protein binding activity and actin filament binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cortical actin cytoskeleton organization; filopodium assembly; and regulation of cell shape. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Orthologous to human FMNL3 (formin like 3). [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 Fmnl3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
