Official Full Name: recombination activating 1
Also known as: Rag-1
Performs multiple functions, including protein homodimerization activity; ubiquitin protein ligase activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in immune system development; positive regulator of T cell differentiation; protein ubiquitination. Acts upstream or within several processes, including T cell homeostasis; hematopoietic or lymphoid organ development; and negatively regulates apoptotic processes. Intranuclear is expressed in several structures, including the arterial system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; intestinal tract; and lymphatic system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implied in Omenn syndrome; combined cellular and humoral immune defects with granulomas; severe combined immunodeficiency; cell-positive. Orthologous to human RAG1 (recombination activating 1).
