Cln5 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables long-chain fatty acyl-CoA hydrolase activity. Acts upstream of or within lysosome organization and visual perception. Located in lysosome and vacuolar lumen. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver; sensory organ; and spleen. Used to study neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 5. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 5. Orthologous to human CLN5 (CLN5 intracellular trafficking protein). [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 Cln5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
