Gfpt1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including amino acid binding activity; glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase (isomerizing) activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in circadian regulation of gene expression. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and sensory organ. Used to study congenital myasthenic syndrome 12. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome 12 and obesity. Orthologous to human GFPT1 (glutamine--fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 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 Gfpt1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
