Pin1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables several functions, including beta-catenin binding activity; peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity; and phosphoprotein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of amyloid-beta formation; protein peptidyl-prolyl isomerization; and protein stabilization. Acts upstream of or within regulation of cell population proliferation and regulation of cytokinesis. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including 2-cell stage embryo; gut; nucleus pulposus; and reproductive system. Used to study Alzheimer's disease. Orthologous to human PIN1 (peptidylprolyl cis/trans isomerase, NIMA-interacting 1). [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 Pin1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
