Paxip1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

This gene encodes a nuclear-localized protein that contains six BRCT1 (C-terminal of breast cancer susceptibility protein) domains. The encoded protein is involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks and is necessary for progression through cell division. The protein also functions in the regulation of transcription by recruiting histone methyltransferases to gene promoters bound by the sequence-specific transcription factor paired box protein 2 (Pax2).

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 Paxip1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • BRCT
  • Regulator of Ty1 transposition protein 107 BRCT domain
  • twin BRCT domain
  • BRCA1 C Terminus (BRCT) domain
  • BRCT domain, a BRCA1 C-terminus domain
  • protein binding
  • breast cancer carboxy-terminal domain
