Foxp1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; identical protein binding activity; and transcription coregulator binding activity. Involved in T follicular helper cell differentiation; nervous system development; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on regulation of androgen receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of cell population proliferation; regulation of gene expression; and striated muscle tissue development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and musculoskeletal system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Barrett's esophagus; congenital heart disease; esophagus adenocarcinoma; intellectual disability-severe speech delay-mild dysmorphism syndrome; and peritonitis. Orthologous to human FOXP1 (forkhead box P1). [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 Foxp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
