Tff1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable growth factor activity. Acts upstream of or within cell differentiation and negative regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ear; nervous system; reproductive system; and skeleton. Used to study stomach cancer. Orthologous to human TFF1 (trefoil factor 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 Tff1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
