Dynlt3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable dynein intermediate chain binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in microtubule-based movement and positive regulation of mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to be located in mitotic spindle astral microtubule. Predicted to be part of cytoplasmic dynein complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Predicted to colocalize with kinetochore. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; gut; lower urinary tract; nose; and submandibular gland primordium. Orthologous to human DYNLT3 (dynein light chain Tctex-type 3). [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 Dynlt3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
