Higd1a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to glucose starvation; negative regulation of release of cytochrome c from mitochondria; and positive regulation of protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane and nucleus. Is expressed in cerebral cortex ventricular layer; cortical plate; and embryo. Orthologous to human HIGD1A (HIG1 hypoxia inducible domain family member 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 Higd1a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
