Mad2l1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable protein homodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within mitotic sister chromatid segregation and mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint signaling. Located in several cellular components, including kinetochore; nucleus; and spindle pole. Part of mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint MAD1-MAD2 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; and retina. Orthologous to human MAD2L1 (mitotic arrest deficient 2 like 1).

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 Mad2l1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
