Extl3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables protein-hormone receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cytokine production involved in inflammatory response; negative regulation of inflammatory response to wounding; and negative regulation of keratinocyte differentiation. Acts upstream of or within quinolinate biosynthetic process. Is active in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; heart; metanephros; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human EXTL3 (exostosin like glycosyltransferase 3).

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 Extl3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
