Tacc3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables protein domain specific binding activity and protein sequestering activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including astral microtubule organization; maintenance of protein complex location in cytoplasm; and nervous system development. Located in centrosome and cytoplasm. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; early embryo; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human TACC3 (transforming acidic coiled-coil containing protein 3). [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 Tacc3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
