Cc2d1a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in regulation of postsynapse assembly. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including apical dendrite arborization; long-term synaptic potentiation; and regulation of respiratory gaseous exchange by nervous system process. Located in cytosol and endosome membrane. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in brain. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 3 and intellectual disability. Orthologous to human CC2D1A (coiled-coil and C2 domain containing 1A). [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 Cc2d1a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
