Brinp3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Involved in cellular response to retinoic acid; central nervous system neuron differentiation; and negative regulation of mitotic cell cycle. Acts upstream of or within exploration behavior; nervous system development; and social behavior. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in central nervous system; olfactory epithelium; and submandibular gland primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human BRINP3 (BMP/retinoic acid inducible neural specific 3).

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 Brinp3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
