Herc1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Acts upstream of or within several processes, including bone mineralization; bone remodeling; and nervous system development. Is expressed in several structures, including jaw bone; nervous system; sensory organ; thymus primordium; and vibrissa. Orthologous to human HERC1 (HECT and RLD domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase family member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 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 Herc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
