Mtdh Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable NF-kappaB binding activity; double-stranded RNA binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including lipopolysaccharide-mediated signaling pathway; positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane; nucleolus; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; limb primordium; nose; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma. Orthologous to human MTDH (metadherin). [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 Mtdh often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
