Prdx1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of with a negative effect on canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction and regulation of non-canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity; regulation of stress-activated MAPK cascade; and removal of superoxide radicals. Located in mitochondrion and myelin sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. Orthologous to human PRDX1 (peroxiredoxin 1). [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 Prdx1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
