Sncaip Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in dopamine metabolic process; regulation of inclusion body assembly; and regulation of neurotransmitter secretion. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granule and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; cerebral cortex; genitourinary system; and ureter. Orthologous to human SNCAIP (synuclein alpha interacting protein).

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