Jdp2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; cAMP response element binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within with a negative effect on regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within chromatin remodeling and negative regulation of fat cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including blood island; central nervous system; genitourinary system; musculoskeletal system; and neural retina. Orthologous to human JDP2 (Jun dimerization protein 2). [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 Jdp2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
