HMG20A Gene Summary [Human]

Enables identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of neuron differentiation; negative regulation of protein sumoylation; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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 human HMG20A often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
