Dgcr2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable carbohydrate binding activity. Acts upstream of or within response to xenobiotic stimulus. Located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and limb primordium. Orthologous to human DGCR2 (DiGeorge syndrome critical region gene 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 Dgcr2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- von Willebrand factor type C domain
- C-type lectin (CTL)/C-type lectin-like (CTLD) domain
- Lectin C-type domain
- LDLa
- protein binding
