Parp2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables NAD+ poly-ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Involved in decidualization. Acts upstream of or within base-excision repair and extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; gonad; liver; retina; and thymus. Orthologous to human PARP2 (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 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 Parp2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
