Pole4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in DNA-templated DNA replication. Predicted to be part of ATAC complex and epsilon DNA polymerase complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and integumental system. Orthologous to human POLE4 (DNA polymerase epsilon 4, accessory subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Pole4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
