Dpt Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Acts upstream of or within collagen fibril organization and negative regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Is expressed in body wall mesenchyme; germ cell of testis; hindlimb tendon; lip; and musculoskeletal system. Orthologous to human DPT (dermatopontin). [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 mouse Dpt often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
