Yipf5 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Acts upstream of or within Golgi organization and regulation of ER to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport. Located in COPII-coated ER to Golgi transport vesicle; endoplasmic reticulum exit site; and nuclear outer membrane-endoplasmic reticulum membrane network. Is expressed in Meckel's cartilage; diaphragm; heart; hindlimb muscle; and orbito-sphenoid. Orthologous to human YIPF5 (Yip1 domain family member 5).

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 Yipf5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
