Pnpt1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and polyribonucleotide nucleotidyltransferase activity. Involved in mitochondrial mRNA catabolic process; mitochondrion organization; and regulation of cellular respiration. Located in mitochondrial intermembrane space. Is expressed in central nervous system and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 70; combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 13; and spinocerebellar ataxia type 25. Orthologous to human PNPT1 (polyribonucleotide nucleotidyltransferase 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 Pnpt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
