Npat Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable transcription coactivator activity and transcription corepressor activity. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Predicted to be located in Cajal body; Gemini of Cajal bodies; and cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in inner cell mass. Orthologous to human NPAT (nuclear protein, coactivator of histone transcription). [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 Npat often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
