Zbtb1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables protein homodimerization activity. Involved in positive regulation of T cell mediated immunity; positive regulation of lymphocyte differentiation; and thymus development. Acts upstream of or within B cell differentiation and T cell differentiation in thymus. Predicted to be located in nuclear body and nuclear membrane. Predicted to be active in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; female reproductive system; jaw bone; submandibular gland primordium; and urinary system. Orthologous to human ZBTB1 (zinc finger and BTB domain containing 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 Zbtb1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
