Sf1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables RNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including Leydig cell differentiation; male sex determination; and nuclear body organization. Located in nuclear body. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; limb; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human SF1 (splicing factor 1).

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 Sf1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
