Parn Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including poly(A)-specific ribonuclease activity; protein kinase binding activity; and telomerase RNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within nuclear-transcribed mRNA poly(A) tail shortening. Predicted to be located in nuclear speck and nucleolus. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse; nucleus; and postsynapse. Is expressed in 2-cell stage embryo; central nervous system; and genitourinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive dyskeratosis congenita 6. Orthologous to human PARN (poly(A)-specific ribonuclease).

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