Cant1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

The protein encoded by this gene is a calcium-dependent nucleotidase that preferentially hydrolyzes UDP, GDP, and IDP. The encoded protein has low activity with ADP and ATP and shows no activity with AMP and GMP. Several transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene.

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 Cant1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
