Cnst Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables connexin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of Golgi to plasma membrane protein transport. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane; trans-Golgi network; and transport vesicle. Is expressed in cerebral cortex subventricular zone and cortical plate. Orthologous to human CNST (consortin, connexin sorting protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Cnst often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
