Nptx1 - neuronal pentraxin 1 Gene

Rattus norvegicus
Gene ID: 266777 | Gene type: protein coding

About Nptx1

Summary

Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including mitochondrial fragmentation involved in apoptotic process; neurotransmitter receptor localization to postsynaptic specialization membrane; and regulation of postsynaptic density assembly. Located in mitochondrion; neuron projection; and plasma membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and synaptic cleft. Orthologous to human NPTX1 (neuronal pentraxin 1).
