Lmo3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and transcription coactivator activity. Acts upstream of or within exploration behavior and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cochlea; spinal cord; and vestibulo-cochlear ganglion. Orthologous to human LMO3 (LIM domain only 3).

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 Lmo3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- LIM is a small protein-protein interaction domain, containing two zinc fingers
- protein binding
