Ncl Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables PH domain binding activity; RNA binding activity; and insulin receptor substrate binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to epidermal growth factor stimulus; cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; and regulation of primary metabolic process. Located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Is active in cornified envelope. Is expressed in several structures, including 1st branchial arch mandibular component; blastocyst; central nervous system; early embryo; and tooth. Orthologous to human NCL (nucleolin).

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