Ddx54 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA helicase activity; nuclear estrogen receptor binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in rRNA processing. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; hemolymphoid system gland; limb; male reproductive gland or organ; and tongue. Orthologous to human DDX54 (DEAD-box helicase 54).

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 Ddx54 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
