Nab2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and transcription coregulator activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including endochondral ossification; nervous system development; and regulation of epidermis development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system; future hindbrain; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human NAB2 (NGFI-A binding protein 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 Nab2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Ncd1 domain
  • transcription regulator
  • NCD2 domain
  • NAB conserved region 1 (NCD1)
  • NAB conserved region 2 (NCD2)
  • transcription co-repressor
  • nuclear localization sequence
  • transcription factor binding
  • CHD4-interacting domain
  • protein binding
  • identical protein binding
