Golga3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation and spermatogenesis. Located in Golgi membrane and endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; endocrine gland; genitourinary system; gut; and nervous system. Orthologous to human GOLGA3 (golgin A3).

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 Golga3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
