Cluap1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Acts upstream of or within axoneme assembly; embryonic morphogenesis; and smoothened signaling pathway. Located in centrosome; ciliary base; and ciliary tip. Part of intraciliary transport particle A and intraciliary transport particle B. Is expressed in several structures, including cranial ganglion; neural tube; olfactory epithelium; respiratory system; and thymus primordium. Orthologous to human CLUAP1 (clusterin 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 Cluap1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
