Tpi1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables triose-phosphate isomerase activity. Involved in canonical glycolysis; gluconeogenesis; and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within glucose metabolic process. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study triosephosphate isomerase deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carbohydrate metabolic disorder and triosephosphate isomerase deficiency. Orthologous to human TPI1 (triosephosphate isomerase 1). [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 Tpi1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
