Cpeb1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables mRNA 3'-UTR AU-rich region binding activity and mRNA regulatory element binding translation repressor activity. Involved in cellular response to amino acid stimulus; cellular response to hypoxia; and regulation of translation. Acts upstream of or within regulation of neuronal synaptic plasticity; regulation of translation; and synaptonemal complex assembly. Located in several cellular components, including cytoplasm; meiotic spindle; and nucleus. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in central nervous system; early embryo; reproductive system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human CPEB1 (cytoplasmic polyadenylation element binding protein 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 Cpeb1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
