Gins4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Acts upstream of or within inner cell mass cell proliferation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including 4-cell stage embryo; bone marrow; brain; genitourinary system; and inner cell mass. Orthologous to human GINS4 (GINS complex subunit 4).

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 Gins4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Alpha-helical domain of GINS complex proteins (Sld5, Psf1, Psf2 and Psf3)
  • DNA replication complex GINS protein SLD5 C-terminus
  • GINS_B
  • protein binding
