Anxa8 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including actin filament binding activity; phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate binding activity; and phospholipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in endosomal transport; endosome organization; and negative regulation of hydrolase activity. Predicted to be located in cytosol; late endosome membrane; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; sarcolemma; and vesicle membrane. Orthologous to several human genes including ANXA8 (annexin A8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Anxa8 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
