Hmgn1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables chromatin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including nucleotide-excision repair; positive regulation of NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase activity; and response to UV. Located in female germ cell nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; sensory organ; and skin. Orthologous to human HMGN1 (high mobility group nucleosome binding domain 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 Hmgn1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • transcription regulator
  • HMG14 and HMG17
  • domain in high mobilty group proteins HMG14 and HMG 17
  • chromatin binding
