Zfp106 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables SH3 domain binding activity and opioid peptide activity. Acts upstream of or within insulin receptor signaling pathway. Located in cytosol and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; heart and pericardium; and musculature. Used to study amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Orthologous to human ZNF106 (zinc finger protein 106). [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 Zfp106 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
