Antxr2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable transmembrane signaling receptor activity. Acts upstream of or within collagen fibril organization; single fertilization; and uterus development. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in cerebral cortex and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in fibroma and hyaline fibromatosis syndrome. Orthologous to human ANTXR2 (ANTXR cell adhesion molecule 2). [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 Antxr2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
