M6pr Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable retromer complex binding activity. Involved in lysosomal transport. Acts upstream of or within secretion of lysosomal enzymes. Located in late endosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver and biliary system; and skin. Orthologous to human M6PR (mannose-6-phosphate receptor, cation dependent). [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 M6pr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
