Zfp36l1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables mRNA 3'-UTR AU-rich region binding activity. Involved in several processes, including 3'-UTR-mediated mRNA destabilization; cellular response to cAMP; and cellular response to raffinose. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; circulatory system development; and post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Part of ribonucleoprotein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human ZFP36L1 (ZFP36 ring finger protein like 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 Zfp36l1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
