Zmat2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of U2-type precatalytic spliceosome and U4/U6 x U5 tri-snRNP complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human ZMAT2 (zinc finger matrin-type 2). [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 Zmat2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Zinc-finger double-stranded RNA-binding
  • U1 zinc finger
  • protein binding
  • Zinc-finger of C2H2 type
