Celf1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables lncRNA binding activity; mRNA binding activity; and translation initiation factor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including mRNA splice site recognition; regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome; and spermatid development. Located in cytoplasm and male germ cell nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; early embryo; musculature; and testis. Orthologous to human CELF1 (CUGBP Elav-like family member 1). [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 Celf1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
