Aimp1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables cytokine activity. Involved in leukocyte migration and positive regulation of glucagon secretion. Located in extracellular space. Part of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase multienzyme complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; genitourinary system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 3. Orthologous to human AIMP1 (aminoacyl tRNA synthetase complex interacting multifunctional 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 Aimp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
