Mospd1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cranial ganglion; limb mesenchyme; tongue muscle; and vertebral axis musculature. Orthologous to human MOSPD1 (motile sperm domain containing 1).

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 Mospd1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
