Fancd2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable DNA polymerase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including homologous chromosome pairing at meiosis; neuronal stem cell population maintenance; and regulation of regulatory T cell differentiation. Located in condensed chromosome and nucleus. Is expressed in cerebral cortex subventricular zone; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; and primordial germ cell of gonad. Used to study Fanconi anemia complementation group D2. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Fanconi anemia; Fanconi anemia complementation group D2; and breast cancer. Orthologous to human FANCD2 (FA complementation group D2). [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 Fancd2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
