Adss Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables adenylosuccinate synthase activity. Involved in 'de novo' AMP biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within AMP biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human ADSS2 (adenylosuccinate synthase 2). [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 Adss often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
