Gipc1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables actin binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and myosin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; positive regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway; and presynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to interleukin-7; endothelial cell migration; and glutamate secretion. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite; synaptic vesicle; and vesicle membrane. Is active in Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse and glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including future brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in oculopharyngodistal myopathy 2. Orthologous to human GIPC1 (GIPC PDZ domain containing family member 1).

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 Gipc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
