Lims1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable protein kinase binding activity and zinc ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of cell population proliferation; negative regulation of hepatocyte apoptotic process; and positive regulation of integrin-mediated signaling pathway. Located in focal adhesion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human LIMS1 (LIM zinc finger domain containing 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 Lims1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
