Prc1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable cytoskeletal protein binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mitotic spindle midzone assembly; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and regulation of cytokinesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within microtubule bundle formation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including contractile ring; intercellular bridge; and midbody. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and mitotic spindle midzone. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; heart; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PRC1 (protein regulator of cytokinesis 1). [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 Prc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
