Crim1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable PDZ domain binding activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of BMP signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; heart; integumental system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CRIM1 (cysteine rich transmembrane BMP regulator 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 Crim1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
