Cspg5 Gene Summary [Mouse]
This gene encodes a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. The encoded protein has been termed a 'part-time' proteoglycan, as chondroitin sulfate chains appear to be attached to the protein in the developing but not the adult cerebellum and retina. It is thought that this protein plays roles in dendrite branching and synapse formation. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

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 Cspg5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
