Specc1l Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables beta-catenin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including anterior neural tube closure; negative regulation of protein depolymerization; and positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction. Located in cell-cell junction; cytoplasm; and cytoskeleton. Part of filamentous actin. Is expressed in 1st branchial arch maxillary component; branchial arch; eye; fronto-nasal process; and limb. Used to study Teebi hypertelorism syndrome 1 and cleft palate. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Teebi hypertelorism syndrome 1 and oblique facial clefting 1. Orthologous to human SPECC1L (sperm antigen with calponin homology and coiled-coil domains 1 like). [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 Specc1l often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
