Pias3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables SUMO transferase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; negative regulation of osteoclast differentiation; and protein sumoylation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is active in glutamatergic synapse; postsynaptic cytosol; and presynaptic cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including blastocyst; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and maxillary process. Orthologous to human PIAS3 (protein inhibitor of activated STAT 3).

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 Pias3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
