Mid1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including microtubule binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of microtubule depolymerization. Located in cytoplasm and microtubule cytoskeleton. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; branchial arch; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study Opitz GBBB syndrome and microphthalmia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Opitz GBBB syndrome. Orthologous to human MID1 (midline 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 Mid1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
