Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including disordered domain specific binding activity; transcription regulator inhibitor activity; and ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of gene expression; response to thyroid hormone; and selenium compound metabolic process. Located in adherens junction and focal adhesion. Part of protein-containing complex. Biomarker of diabetic retinopathy; end stage renal disease; and ureteral obstruction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gallbladder cancer. Orthologous to human KEAP1 (kelch like ECH associated protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
