Tcea1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and zinc ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within erythrocyte differentiation and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; lung; and spleen. Orthologous to human TCEA1 (transcription elongation factor A1). [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 Tcea1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
