Ythdc1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable N6-methyladenosine-containing RNA reader activity and mRNA binding activity. Involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including mRNA alternative polyadenylation; primary follicle stage; and regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in brain; intestine; and liver. Orthologous to human YTHDC1 (YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein C1). [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 Ythdc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • EVE and YTH domains belong to the PUA superfamily
  • protein binding activity, bridging
  • protein binding
  • YT521-B-like domain
  • RNA binding
