Aatf Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable leucine zipper domain binding activity; protein kinase binding activity; and tau protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of amyloid precursor protein biosynthetic process; negative regulation of apoptotic signaling pathway; and regulation of mitotic cell cycle. Located in cytoplasm and nucleolus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; genitourinary system; liver; nervous system; and tooth. Orthologous to human AATF (apoptosis antagonizing transcription factor). [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 Aatf often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
