Rln1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in mammary gland development; regulation of apoptotic process; and spermatogenesis. Acts upstream of or within prostate gland growth and regulation of nitric oxide mediated signal transduction. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including Harderian gland; alimentary system; genitourinary system; immune system; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to several human genes including RLN2 (relaxin 2). [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 Rln1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
