About Keap1

Primary_assembly 8: 19,768,375-19,777,862 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026981.1

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 189 orthologues, 53 paralogues and is associated with 28 phenotypes. Biased expression in Muscle (RPKM 121.2), Adrenal (RPKM 18.2) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Predicted to enable disordered domain specific binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of gene expression; response to thyroid hormone; and selenium compound metabolic process. Located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; focal adhesion; and nucleus. 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, Apr 2022]
