Dmap1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables transcription corepressor activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in replication fork. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and integumental system. Orthologous to human DMAP1 (DNA methyltransferase 1 associated protein 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 Dmap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
