Vsir Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable endopeptidase activator activity; enzyme binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of CD4-positive, alpha-beta T cell proliferation; negative regulation of T cell cytokine production; and positive regulation of BMP signaling pathway. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including immune system; liver; lung; male reproductive gland or organ; and small intestine lamina propria. Orthologous to human VSIR (V-set immunoregulatory receptor). [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 Vsir often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
