Cnot2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable transcription corepressor binding activity. Predicted to contribute to poly(A)-specific ribonuclease activity. Involved in regulation of stem cell population maintenance and trophectodermal cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleoplasm; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of CCR4-NOT core complex. Predicted to be active in P-body. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch; brain; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system gland. Orthologous to human CNOT2 (CCR4-NOT transcription complex subunit 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 Cnot2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
