Gmcl1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable cullin family protein binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nuclear envelope and nuclear matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and lung. Orthologous to several human genes including GMCL1 (germ cell-less 1, spermatogenesis associated). [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 Gmcl1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
