Ddr1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable collagen binding activity and protein tyrosine kinase collagen receptor activity. Involved in animal organ regeneration; collagen-activated tyrosine kinase receptor signaling pathway; and skin development. Located in basolateral plasma membrane and brush border. Used to study idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Biomarker of congestive heart failure. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in breast carcinoma; lung non-small cell carcinoma; osteosarcoma; and skin melanoma. Orthologous to human DDR1 (discoidin domain receptor tyrosine kinase 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 Ddr1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
