Sdhaf2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; negative regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition; and protein dephosphorylation. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus and oocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in paraganglioma. Orthologous to human SDHAF2 (succinate dehydrogenase complex assembly factor 2). [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 Sdhaf2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
