Txn1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables protein-disulfide reductase activity. Acts upstream of or within cell redox homeostasis; negative regulation of protein export from nucleus; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; skeleton; and submandibular gland primordium. Orthologous to human TXN (thioredoxin).

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 Txn1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
