Gmnn Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in negative regulation of cell cycle; negative regulation of nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process; and protein-containing complex assembly. Acts upstream of or within animal organ morphogenesis. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early embryo; genitourinary system; and primitive streak. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Meier-Gorlin syndrome 6. Orthologous to human GMNN (geminin DNA replication inhibitor). [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 Gmnn often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
