Cndp1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables dipeptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within proteolysis and regulation of protein metabolic process. Located in cytosol. Is expressed in alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; sensory organ; and tail. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in glomerulonephritis. Orthologous to human CNDP1 (carnosine dipeptidase 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 Cndp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
